Good Jacket

I have the Mountain Hardware chugach jacket and was very pleased. The downhill parka is no exception. It is a very good quality product. Lots of pockets, good fit, not puffy like a traditional down jacket. My only complaint is that I wore this jacket out of the box in 21 degree weather and I immediately noticed cold spots in the shoulder area. The down is very thin in this area. I admit that I only wore a long sleeve t-shirt underneath. The jacket however is perfect with a base layer and a light middle layer for active outdoor activities. The cut is great and the jacket looks great.
