Aritzia Bancroft Parka in charcoal, XS

Aritzia’s “warmest parka” - fits like a glove because of the elastic waist at the back (see photo of the back) and is very warm, even though it’s a slim fit. The shell is water and wind resistant canvas, and the filling is responsibly sourced goose down. The pockets and zipper flap (not sure what that’s called) all have strong magnetic closures instead of snaps, which I think is better. Some other features that I appreciate about it are the lined pockets at chest level (so great for keeping hands warm!), merino wool storm cuffs, a “snorkel” hood /collar that zips up real high, removable faux fur trim on the hood that does a great job of cutting the wind, an inner pocket with a carabiner. I also like that it has a dual zipper so you can unzip from the bottom if you’re riding a bike or just need more mobility. It’s machine washable! Parting ways with it only because it unfortunately doesn’t fit me any more. It doesn’t really have signs of wear aside from the metal on the zipper being a bit worn down, but it doesn’t show much.
