This Jacket/Parka replaces the previous UL series which I did not like because it was way too boxy (I am skinny) and a bit too short (which prevented me from bothering to size down). Curious if anyone has any feedback on the fit so I can determine if its worth ordering.

Montbell’s return policy appears to be pretty liberal…returns of new, undamaged items with original packaging and tags accepted no questions asked. You’d just be out return shipping.

Hmm, my experience with the Montbell UL series is that they are cut lean, much leaner than the other brands I've tried. I'm 6'3" and weigh 187 lbs right now and my large UL Down Jacket that I bought in 2012 is almost too skinny for me yet plenty long enough. Not arguing that you didn't find it "boxy", your experience may be different from mine. But I would find one of the superior jackets and try it on. That may be difficult to do. I haven't been able to find a Montbell jacket in a store since 2012. I am also curious about the Superior line, and just a few days ago I went in to the store that I bought my Montbell jacket from for the first time in 3 years and found it filled with Patagonia and Rab puffies. I asked the manager and he said that Montbell makes great products but were extremely difficult to work with, so much so that they no longer carry their products.
