Comfy, Cozy Rig!

Ranked #4 - Men's Down Jackets
November 7, 2008
This is really an amazing jacket! My body runs a little bit cold so I thought I be doing a little overkill and I was very right/wrong! This jacket is packed with down and makes you look much larger than you really are. I don't know that I head to the disco but for what it's intended to do it's absolutely the best! The exterior is completely windproof. I've been in some wicked cold regions and in some extreme wind in those regions and I didn't feel even the slightest breeze! Part of the beauty of this jacket is that even thought the jacket is completely windproof the material used at the liner inside the jacket is very thin and feels very soft. The collar around the neck is also very soft and kind of tucks you right in. Sizing ran true to the norm. Yeah, it's a lot of money but from what I've experience it's well worth every penny!
