Niobe Jacket
,
I’ve been wearing a baggy men’s down jacket for 10 years. It has served its purpose, but it was time to upgrade to something with a better fit and bit more style. The Niobe Jacket is the cure to my baggy-coat blues.
The stats are these: 650 fill down, velvet-lined collar, front zip with no-snag draft flap, low-loft sleeve insulation, internal zip pocket that doubles as stuff sack, internal stretch mesh pocket, microfleece-lined hand pockets with zip closure, velvet-lined adjustable Velcro cuffs and drawcord hem. It’s warm enough to wear standing outside in sub-zero weather or sprinting from the yurt to the outhouse, and cute enough to don for a downtown dinner. $185, isisforwomen.com.
