Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Down Jacket - Men's

Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Down Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 February 2, 2009

Like A.D., I tested it during the very cold temp we got in Quebec, I was wearing it at -38, and with only a T-shit underneath, I was nice and toasty. I tested it in -30 and with 60km/h winds, and it is highly wind resistant, I couldn't feel any cold spot in the jacket. It dissipates moisture very effectively, when I was supposed to sweat, it just... never happened.
Again, I highly recommend it.

Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Down Jacket - Men's

Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Down Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 January 12, 2009

I just bought this jacket. I'm 6' tall, and I chose the medium size, it's perfect! It's the sapphire blue one, and this color is very, very nice.
I needed a deep hood (I have a fairly long neck), and this one has it, I needed a high quality down jacket, I got it, I needed a warm down jacket, I totally got it.
This jacket will be used from urban walking to mountain climbing, since here in Quebec, we get -20° temperatures 3 months during winter, and it likes to go down to -35°C at least once a week.
I am not cold sensitive like most lower 48 U.S states citizens, so my thoughts about a warm jacket may not be yours.
I don't have any issue using the 2-way zipper, it's a high quality YKK zipper, what could you want more?
Did I say it is light? It is very light.
The fabric and the whole thing is very high quality, and I highly recommend it.
