User Review: The North Face Mountain Guide Jacket

The North Face Mountain Guide Jacket
Above: The current Mountain Guide Jacket, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 3 of 5 stars
Fabric: 2 PLY GORTEX
Price Paid: $325 CAN.

I tried on two Mountain Guide jacket in men's medium. A red one and a yellow one. I notice the yellow one overall has a looser fit than the red one. My first instinct was the red jacket is a women's medium, upon checking the tag it's a men's medium also. I check where the jackets were make, the red jacket is made in China and the yellow jacket was made in Indonesia. I ask a salesperson whether he has any knowledge of the fit difference relevant to place of manufacture. He was as amazed as me. I try on another jacket made in China and again it's a tighter fit. I don't know whether that shipment of jackets where mistagged? I don't know how widespread this is, so beware.
