Browning Women's Full Curl Wool Parka

Comments about Browning® Women's Full Curl™ Wool Parka:

Kept warm in -20 temps. However cloth is tearing and seams are coming apart. Snaps pull out of cloth & become useless.
Expected more from Browning.

I have both the full curl jacket and pants. I was so excited that I finally found something that would fit a woman's figure and looking forward to using this set up during our annual fall time hunt but seeing as the fabric is starting to tear from being hung up by the hood, it will mostlikely get completly torn apart while going through brush. I LOVE how soft the fabric is but I guess you cant have your cake and eat it too. Perhaps they should have used more than %50 wool...

Although it isnt as sturdy as I thought it would be AND the sleeves are an inch shorter than they should be, it still is very warm and I decided its not worth getting rid of. The suit is light weight but works very well in below zero temps, up to -25.

Current uses: running occational errands, light winter hunting and snow"mobile" rides(wearing layers)

Yes, I would reccomend this to a friend if they dropped down the price. In my opinion the jacket and pants are not worth more than $80 or $90 together.

I love Browning and fell in love with the jacket online. I had to order it online because Gander Mountain did not have the women's jacket at their store, only the men's. I was disappointed with the size. I originally ordered an XL thinking that would be a good fit as I normally wear shirts Large and XLarge if I want baggy. The XL jacket was snug and the sleeves were not long enough. I returned it and got the 2XL. It was a better fit, but the sleeves were still not long enough. I am going to keep the jacket because I don't like to make a fuss about things and I will continue to wear it. I can see that it will rip easily if caught on a branch or something so I don't plan on hunting in it, just wearing it casually. I reccomend that if you do want this jacket, order a size above what you normally order and hopefully the sleeves won't bug you because they are a few inches too short. Unless I just have long arms. :)

I bought the full curl jacket and pants. The jacket ran small and the pants ran big. I wear true size womens 4. The Browning pants in small were huge on me, but the small jacket ran very small. I had to re-order a medium.
The product is advertised as "wool" but is really a wool blend with only 50% wool which should be more clear in advertising. It was not as warm as a result. The fabric is 7 oz. but is a loose weave and snags and tears very easily. I actually sent pant and jacket back to Browning since it was not Gander's fault that the quality was not that great and that the pants got a rip just walking thru the woods.. and I got a full refund, no questions asked. The pockets in the jacket are way too small too.

Browning has a GREAT idea to make wool hunting clothing for women. I would hope they dial up the quality of the Full Curl to a heftier wool with less man made fabric in the mix, shore up the sizing and give it bigger pockets. Granted, we are not in the price range of 27 ounce high end camo woolies like King of the Mountain, but most people cannot afford that. But I was expecting a lot more from a high end brand I trust (Browning). I look forward to this product being improved to equal the quality of my other Browning camo, like my insultaed bibs and quad jacket I bought years ago. I am willing to pay for great quality. I also own the Gander brand TechH20 womens insulated jacket and pants and they are GREAT and better than this Browning product. Gander womens camo is great quality. However, I really want to own wool camo (Gander, please make some?). Hopefully someone comes out with something for women that measures up to the demands women have for warmth, and quality at a price under say, $600 for jacket and pant combo.

I live in MT and needed wool to keep me warm while out hunting. I bought the matching pants and while they were too big, even in the small, I was prepared to keep them because they are so cute and super warm. However, I knew when I pulled them (the coat and pants) out of the box that they'd have to go back because of how loud they are; almost as loud as snow pants. My main use of the set was to wear them while hunting and you would not be able to sneak up on anything while wearing these. If this isn't your goal, then I would totally get them as they seem to be well made and are really cute...not that that really matters in the mountians! They seem to be very warm as I was sweltering just trying them on too!
