wantdo Men's Softshell Waterproof Polar Fleece Breathable Climbing Ski Coat

So i am an Avid Fisherman and i've always just layered clothing in the winter months. I'm in South Carolina so this review is based on my climate with isn't nearly as cold/snowy as other areas. Anyway, when I do fish in the winter months it is typically around 35 degrees or so when i go in the mornings. I would always just layer clothing but i have always bought top brand clothing (North Face, Patagonia, Mtn Hardwear, etc) so enough layers of those and you can stay warm and dry. So i am at the point where i can afford a NICE fishing coat and i was looking at the AFTCO Hydronaut. I read review after review and just before pulling the trigger on that $250 jacket i decided to read reviews on some of the other jackets out there. I actually found an article that listed the top 10 fishing jackets and this jacket was on the list ahead of the AFTCO. So i went on Amazon and checked it out. For the price difference and Amazons incredibly easy return system i decided what the heck, if it's a cheap jacket i'll return it easily and all is well and good. So this jacket arrives and i'm eager to check it out. Right out of the box i am skeptical but excited because this appears to be very nice. So i get it out and slap that bad boy on..... WhooooooooWeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! Lemme tell ya, i've spent $300 on nice jackets and this bad boy felt like i just slipped into a Lamborghini (sp). I am not joking!! As you can see, it was slightly big on me but the adjustable draw strings helped with that. Plus, even though it looks a bit bulky on the outside it doesn't feel bulky on you. One of the biggest complaints i saw on here were the zippers and stitching. The zippers look to be of equal or better quality than i have on any other jacket. The stitching all looked fine. Most of all this thing just felt great!! I have worn it out skeet shooting in 40 degree weather and it was warm on me. I will say that i wouldn't trust it to stand in a downright downpour for hours on end but i do feel like it will keep you dry for a while. For this cost point, this jacket is WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY. Those negative reviewers either expect a $800 arctic coat or had a defect (that does happen). I am 5'11 and weigh 170 lbs. This is a large. Buy it, you'll be glad you did!!!

I started delivering pizza a few months ago and had to rethink my cold weather outfit. Going in and out from a warm restaurant/ car to freezing temps in snow makes it difficult to dress appropriately. I needed a coat that would be windproof and warm that I could put in and take off quickly and easily. I shopped on here for a good hour or two before landing on this one, and I’m glad I did. All of the pockets are nice and well placed, aside from the mesh pocket that I’m unsure of how useful it will be. Seems too big to securely hold anything. It ran a bit larger than I was hoping, but it has cinch cords around the waist and hood so you can get all the areas that let air in completely closed off. I love the thumb holes on the sleeve cuffs, they’re a great touch that will remove the need for gloves unless it’s like the blizzard we just had 12/24/22. it does seem like the thumb holes may only function with thinner or light gloves. But if you have extra heavy or ski gloves on, I doubt the thumb holes will be of much use anyway. One issue with the material/ construction that I’ll be weary about is the fabric ripping around the Velcro at the end of the sleeve. I’m sure that if it gets pulled by the fabric and not the Velcro it will tear. Like the Velcro is slightly stronger than the max force necessary to tear the fabric. The fleece lining is very, very soft and warm, and I love that the hood is lined with the same fleece. I would absolutely recommend this coat to anyone that wants to be warm when the weather is complete ISH!

This Wantdo Men's Mountain Waterproof Ski Jacket is seriously impressive, especially for the price! I recently took it snowboarding, and it kept me super warm and totally held up against the elements. Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised by how well it performed; it really far exceeded my expectations, even when comparing it to a pricier Columbia jacket. If you're looking for a warm, reliable, and budget-friendly option for winter sports or just cold weather, this one's a winner.

I really like this coat, but I seem to be between the men's size medium and small: the medium is just too big, and the small is a bit tight in the chest. I am a female (5'4" around 135#') but wanted to try the men's with the fleece lining that goes all the way to the bottom of the hem for warmth on my hips, and b/c the men's coats are a bit thicker than the women's. I liked the dark blue color which was very atttractive, the hem fit just below my hips, the fleece lining was fuzzy and warm, and does keep the hips warmer than the coats with the snow or powder skirt, if the coat fits close to your hips; which is another reason I wanted to try the men's, as they fit closer to the hips, are a little longer in length, and thicker than the women's. Now this looked very attractive on, but as I said I tried the size medium and it was just too big, and looked like it, with the sleeves hanging below my wrists and the coat bowing out a bit to make me look like I am fat. But the size small fit perfect at the hips (I have slim hips), and the length of the arms was alright, but a bit too tight at the chest, so I could barely layer anything under it. Sigh. I would need a size small and a half. This jacket was thicker than the women's that has the fleece all the way down to the hem, but I am just between sizes. A nice coat however.

I live in Alaska. The weather can be -40 where I live/work and this jacket holds the heat with the thickness of it. The fit, style, and color are perfect. The softness of this jacket is great. Highly recommend this brand for extremely cold weather.

Not being a massive snow guy, I took a 'normal jacket' for a snow weekend with my family. It was awful. I had snow going down my neck, the fir on the collar just melted the snow causing me to get more wet. I went to the fancy stores at the ski village and found a decent Northface Jacket but it cost over $350. I just couldn't bring myself to spend that much money on a jacket. I continued to be jealous of my wife's jacket that had a proper hood to keep the snow out of your neck. I felt like I was uncool wearing an improper jacket for the conditions. I came home and started searching on Amazon and came across this. From the reviews, it looks like a Chinese brand that had some initial challenges in manufacturing, issues with zippers and so forth, which have since been resolved. I bought it and took it to Mammoth Mountain for the weekend. It works great. I felt cool, despite the unknown name "Wantdo". Arguably, this jacket might be too warm for the snow if you happen to be very active while outdoors. But it was below 30F, windy, and snowing all weekend, and it worked great for me. The jacket was comfortable, plenty warm (but not too warm) and has plenty of pockets and cinches to keep the snow out. On Day 3 I was still finding new features of this jacket. I realized it had a kind of glove built-in to the inside of the jacket that goes around your wrist and thumb to keep the snow out of the arms. I didn't use it, but the elastic design stayed around my wrist and made a nice seal anyway. For the cost, I'm very impressed. Highly recommended.

Bought this for a family ski trip, where temperatures ranged from the low 20s down to the mid-teens, with wind chills sometimes dropping below zero. Since we were mostly beginners, there was a lot of falling into the snow. The jacket held up extremely well and kept us so warm that we were able to remove some underlayers to avoid sweating. No snow got inside, so we stayed completely dry. Great product—I would definitely buy it again.

Super comfy and warm. I love the red color too.

This is really the first clothing purchase I have made on Amazon since I was weary the actual fit since I am a large guy. The description and sizing was accurate and the jacket is allot warmer then expected. I went comfortable in -30 C with a windchill of -46 C temperatures. I would recommend this jacket.

This jacket is waterproof. And the very warm jacket this is what I was looking for. I usually do buy a small size all the time and so I did that which fits nicely. Not heavy not too light. This is what I was looking for. Sellers did shipping before the time and even delivery was before the expected time. Thank you to the seller and the delivery department for fulfilling the needs. I would like to recommend this to everyone who is looking for a warm jacket that fits perfectly with your regular clothes as usual.

When I bought this, I just wanted a jacket that will give me warmth and is waterproof that will be good enough for short walks with my dog on cold rainy days in Vancouver. But it gave me more than that. It is really comfortable and gives me warmth for sub zero temperatures and keeps me dry for even much longer walks under the winter rain. Great materials! For a lesser price than better known brands, this is a much better buy.

So far an happy with this purchase. I haven’t worn the jacket in the snow yet so will add to this review once I have. I am 6’5” and purchased an XXL which fits perfectly. The arm lengths are just right and the length of the jacket is also perfect. I like the cuff which has thumb holes for an extra level of protection and the fleece lining seems like it will be really warm. I’ll be using the jacket in temps of between -1 and -12C and will add to my review after I’ve tried it out in the snow.

Really warm water proof jacket. The hood is a little big but other than that it's perfect.
