From Backcountry.com:
"You've been at the belay station for a while. A regular-length puffy might have ridden up a bit and started letting in some cold air around your hips and waist. Not the Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Down Parka. This puffy measures a long 19.5 inches (from the center of the back)."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"An essential piece of gear for cold weather backcountry expeditions, the Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Parka for women is insulated with 650-fill goose down toasty warmth. Lightweight, packable and wind resistant, this Polyester Z-Rip shell provides a host of additional shelter warmth with it's detachable down hood, non-chaffing micro-chamois lined collar and chin guard comfort. Drawcords close in body heat at the hood, hem and back, while articulated sleeves allow for a critical move when it's really needed."

Women's Sub Zero Parka
Reviewed by Meggie, Jan 10, 2009

"If you're looking for a jacket to keep you warm, this will do it. But the cut on this jacket is odd. The sleeves run short for a puffy jacket. A puffy jacket will always require more play in the sleeve length because when you move your arms, the puffiness of the sleeves won't have typical drape and flow."
