Mountain Hardwear Absolute Zero Down Parka - Men's
5 Star Gear
By Lawrence Ross
Ranked #586 - Men's Down Jackets
March 16, 2009
Five star rating for the Absolute Zero Parka. For comparison purposes, this year I purchased, from Backcountry.com, the North North Face Blackhawk Down Jacket, the North Face Agaency Jacket, Canada Goose Expedition Arctic-Tech Parka, and the North Face McMurdo Down Parka. The Absolute Zero Parka was definitely the warmest, with minimal layering, in Northern Michigan sub-zero weather.
I have to admit that I will not be wearing the Absolute Zero as ofter as some of the other jackets; however, when it is needed, it is nice to have it in my arsenal.
