Great for Backpacking
By Brockstar
Ranked #2765 - Men's Down Jackets
November 26, 2008
I have the half zip down sweater and I love it for backpacking! It's light weight, packs amazingly small and also doubles great as a pillow (A Down Pillow at that).
Only Con: Fabric on the outside is littleweight and can puncture if caught on a sharp tree etc... Just don't bushwack in it and you'll never have a problem.
