MARMOT Women’s Chelsea Rain Coat | Down-Insulated, Waterproof, Urban Army, Small

I am 5’4” @130 lbsI was looking EVERYWHERE for a long, waterproof, warm, hooded coat that’s not a puffer coat. I didn’t want the dogs toenails or anything else to accidentally puncture or rip the coat. I saw a women’s blog about this coat and others and she said she already researched a long or maxi coat and this was it. I found the blog after a spent hours looking 🙄although I would have looked anyway just not as long. I walk two dogs separately everyday twice a day and in Maine it rains a fair amount in the winter and it’s also cold. I have Bog boots that are tall and I didn’t want to have to wear waterproof pants to boot. You have to put enough on before going out.Pros:It is the longest coat out there that’s NOT a puffer.It is waterproof I’ve been out twice in the pouring rain (once unexpected)It is warm, could be warmer though - this is also a conIt was under $400 barelyIt does not have velcro on the cuffsIt has two different snaps on the cuffsHas the soft inside cuffs so snow doesn’t go down or up your armThe jacket isn’t stiff (my daughter has one from another company that’s VERY stiff and not as long as mine-on sale similar price)Big zip pockets for treats, poop bags, poop, and gloves (yes I put the leakproof bags of poop in my pockets then throw them away when I get home)Has one zip inside chest left pocket that you could put an iPhone 12 max with case in it. I put an emergency poop bag in mine.Cons:Don’t know what’s up with the darn hood and neck “closure”. This is a big con because neither the large or medium would the neck flaps close with the Velcro and the jacket wouldn’t zip all the way up with a scarf on. I hemmed and hawed about keeping either the medium or large. Decided to keep the medium because the hood fit (not wonderful) but the large was just irritating because I constantly had to mess with it falling forward even with a hat on. With the large I still couldn’t Velcro close the neck flap. Pretty much from the shoulder up they need to go back to the drawing board. Some others wrote about that as well. Having the fur on the hood helps with the wind. I also wear a scarf and you can’t zip the neck up all the way because it’s too tight (same with the large).This coat could be warmer. I was out in 20 degrees below zero with a nasty wind and I had a long sleeve shirt on underneath and I really kind of had to keep moving a bit. With these coats I don’t want to have to wear additional layers that why I got this coat. So I just add an extra layer since the pros outway the cons plus $400 should be sufficient for what I was “asking for”.Hope this helps other women. It’s an investment to me if it’s over $200…just sayin. ☺️

The coat is warm and not bulky. The zipper goes up high and is great if you are outdoors often or have pets to walk all winter long. I did dry clean it once and it was like new again. Expensive investment but good quality and very warm!!

This coat is warm, waterproof and windproof. Exactly what i was looking for during the cold, wet, windy northeastern winters. Zipper is two way, The hood fits great (i had to remove the hood from my other coat because it was way to big). Even the faux fur is nice. Well worth the price. Highly recommend

This jacket runs large. I’m 5’8”, 140 lbs and the medium is a tad too big, when I’m a tried and true size medium (if I there’s no vanity sizing).It’s a great jacket though, and I will wear it with sweaters, so I kept it. Bought it for a fall trip to Ireland knowing the average temps will be in the high 40s/lower 50s range, and raining most days. The jacket is down filled (synthetic I think), and the inside is soft. It’s definitely going to be warm enough. It appears to be rain resistant, which is what Marmot claims, but I’ll test it out soon enough and will report back if it fails. So far, while this is not a cheap jacket, my other Marmot coats have been really fabulous, high-quality items, so guessing this one will be the same and thus, worth every penny.

I received it today right in the blizzard. I cannot tell how well it performs in the cold and wet as I don't feel like getting outside now. What I can say is that the fit is amazing and it is very flattering to my shape. I am 5 ft tall and 100 lbs, and XS in black fits me very well and there is slight room to spare around the waist. With how petite I am, I always have trouble finding clothes that fit. This one is perfect. The waist is where it is supposed to be. The coat falls just above my knees, unlike the picture. The sleeves are a little too long and fall onto my knuckles. If I make a fist, the hands will disappear into the sleeves, which I don't really mind. The material looks like it will resist moisture. The inside of the jacket is sewn in small squares, so it will keep the down in place. I have been looking for a smooth coat that is flattering and does not make me look like I wear a duvet. I have an Eddie Bauer one in petite. Though the fit is good, it is the puffy kind. It says water proof, but the material does not look it, and surely the wet snow melts and sips right through. I also try the Arc'teryx one, but it is way too long and the fit is not as flattering. I tried a couple of North Face ones, and do not like them at all because I look like a bear in them. Canada Goose XS is too tight around my waist and uncomfortable and the sleeves are way too long. If I paid close to $1000 for a coat, it'd better fit more than perfect. SO Chelsea is it!! Will update if it does not perform in the cold or snow. And now I have to replace that faux trim....

I felt the pictures from my review will help others. The coat in the picture is XL and I think it's a generous cut. I listened to the reviews and wondered if an XXL would be too large. Not for me. I'm 5'8", 236 lbs. The XL was able to zip but not the fit I will stick with.My shoulders are broad and so are my hips and I was able to zip up the XL size. Shoulders were too snug to move, an XXL will be a better fit for me. Note the arm length, I typically order tall for my arms but this was great.It is extremely light weight but I started to sweat within 5 minutes inside. I'm sure it will do well in the elements.Update: I ordered an xxl and it’s roomy. I have very broad shoulders (41”) and my shoulders are happier in xxl.

I’m a steadfast size medium, but after ordering and returning a size medium, I tried the small, and it was a much better fit. I can still comfortably add layers underneath without impinging my movement. The jacket is a little bit shapeless, the waist a bit baggy and not very stylish. I like the hood size, a feature I know many people didn’t positively review. I don’t know if I’ll keep this.

He comprado este modelo y también el mas nuevo para compararlos, y no tienen comparación.Para mí es mucho mejor este modelo, pero también , aún siendo más antiguo, sigue siendo mas caro, será porque tiene mejores detalles y acabados que el nuevo.Cremalleras de metal, el tejido exterior más resistente, color negro intenso, el relleno viene en secciones por el interior, haciendo el forro un bonito efecto. Tiene bolsillo interior con cremallera, ajustes en puños, la capucha no es muy grande, pero si se usa con el pelo, baja bastante. Es ligero, ajustado y entallado, con una bonita forma femenina.Se ve una una prenda de calidad, ligera, actual, cómoda, y muy cálida. (No puedo valorar la resistencia a la lluvia). No quiero que llegue el invierno, pero realmente tengo ganas de probarlo.

Ich besitze die Jacke nun seit einigen Jahren und liebe Sie! Sie hat eine Innentasche mit Reißverschluss und die Taschen außen haben auch Reißverschlüsse. Sie ist extrem wasserdicht und warm. Ich trage Sie in den letzten Winterjahren fast täglich.

Ive used this coat through a winter in Ontario and on the coldest days. It keeps the wind out, keeps me warm. The zip doesnt go all the way down which helps when sitting without having to unzip the bottom. I bought a size wee bit bigger which means the hood comes over the top of my head onto my forehand - wish there was a way of securing it back with a button like ive seen on some other coats, but that doesnt affect my five star rating of the jacket! I did take care of the whit ecilour so its got some unsightly stains :( but I'm hoping to keep wearing it for a few winters more cos it does the job of keeping me warm!

I bought this to replace an existing one which has been wonderful and kept me warm and cosy through several winters as I feel the cold very easily. There is very little difference between the new one the old model so I'm hoping this will be just as good. The sizes are on the small side, I'm a size 10 (and 5ft tall) but bought a medium which fits just fine with a jumper underneath. My old coat was water repellent but after a few washes even with appropriate re-proofing wash, it did loose it's repellency but I was willing to sacrifice this for the warmth factor, perhaps the new one will do better in this respect. I don't like the fur around the hood but this is easily removable. Would highly recommend this coat for anyone who feels the cold.

The size of the clothes is too large, 166CM, 55KG, size M is a bit big, size S should be just right
