Must have layer

By Earl Lewis Ranked #2751 - Men's Down Jackets November 26, 2008

This is a must have whether you spend lots of time in the outdoors or just live in a cold climate and use it for running around town.

As another reviewer said this jacket is big on warmth and very lightweight. If your packing it for a backcountry trip you won't even know it's in your pack. But you'll be glad you brought it along when it's time to unskin at the top. It's a great way to eliminate those "unskinning chills".

The only downside to this jacket is that the ripstop nylon is ultralight, which means it's likely to be sensitive to abrasions. Don't carry your skis on your shoulder if this is your outer layer. You might not like the results.
