Perfect Warmth

This jacket is the perfect level of warmth for me to ski in. With a light shell I have been in -10 degree F with wicked winds and ran a few days in the 40s F with just a t-shirt under. Easily packs when it's not needed, shove the body into an arm for a pillow on flights and stylish for a night on the town.

Warm & Comfortable

This this is my go to puffer. I take it everywhere, it smashes down in my pack, works as a pillow on a plane and keeps me warm even on cold days.

The Best Puffy

I love this jacket. I've used it down in Antarctica the past two years, as well on backpacking and thru hiking trips. It keeps me incredibly warm while also being lightweight. Its pretty darn durable as well, as durable as a down jacket can get. Cannot recommend enough!

This jacket is fantastic! Super warm and feels very well made. Not breathable, which I like because I run very cold.

Great By Itself Or Layered

Been very happy with the coat so far. Fit and finish is excellent. Used this jacket as a standalone item hunting and also used it to layer when it got colder. Very light and very warm.

Great Quality, Great Price

I know this isn't down jacket weather but I got such a sweet deal I had to go for it. I'm blown away by the quality of this jacket & the fit is perfect.

Rugged And Warm

I’ve put this jacket through everything and it consistently delivers. The warmth-to-weight ratio is incredible—this thing feels featherlight but traps heat like a much bulkier coat. The Pertex® Diamond Fuse shell is no joke either; I’ve brushed up against rock, ice, and gear with zero signs of wear. It packs down small enough to disappear into my pack, yet performs like a serious cold-weather layer. The water resistance isn’t meant for a downpour, but it’s held up well in light snow and mist. Overall it's perfect for layering, durable for the outdoors, and reliably warm when the temperature drops.

This is probably the warmest jacket I’ve owned, yet very breathable.

Warm And Packable

The jacket fits true to size, keeps you warm, and takes up very little pack space. Great for camping, ski, travel, really anything you need a warmer insulating layer for. Seems pretty durable so far especially considering it’s weight!

Or Down Jacket

A very good quality jacket with warm down insulation. It also has the latest version of Pertex shell called Diamond Fuse. Great water resistance.

Warm As An Oven, Light As…helium

I received this jacket in black for Christmas as a gift. It is super warm and windproof with cozy lined pockets and I like the chest pocket for my phone. The fit is comfy, not bulky, and it does not ride up on my long torso, making it a superb layer under waders. It is extremely light and compressible in its own pocket. This thing will keep you nice and toasty on blustery days, without the extra fluff.

Not Sure On The Fit

It definitely feels warm and is light enough for my backcountry needs. I’m slightly bummed on the fit. Many reviews and “model is X’xx” and wears a size Y” lead me to believe a Medium was right for my 6’, 160lb bag of bones. I think I could’ve gone small. There’s plenty of sleeve (rare for me) and room in the shoulders for motion but the chest and abdomen are much roomier than I’d hoped. Several reviews mentioned it being slim and to size up if you want layers underneath. I don’t think that’s necessary.

Light Weight And Warm

This down jacket is the perfect blend of warm and light weight

Nice Midweight Down Jacket.

This is a great layer for around town in cool to chilly weather and insulation under another layer when it is really cold. I also love the big fleece lined handwarmer pockets.

Incredible Jacket

This jacket has performed well above expectations. It is well insulated against elements and temperature. I love how lightweight and compact the jacket is. The ability to pack and travel with the jacket makes it a must have for any adventure. This is great for anyone beginning their travel wardrobe or adding to an extensive lineup.
