Outdoor Research Megaplume Down Jacket - Men's
Mighty Fine Down
By Nick Stadie
Ranked #1068 - Men's Down Jackets
May 7, 2009
After extensive searching around and trying everything, this jacket has to be the best downy out there. Functional everything: hood (huge, snug and comfy closure), nice pockets, perfect sizing (ie. just a bit bigger than everything else you own so you can put it on top), very well made. That being said, this is a lightweight warmth layer for mountaineering, probably not going to stand the abuse of tree skiing for many seasons. It is very durable for just about everything but shrubbing up against bark at mach speed. 5'11" ~165lbs and the M fits nice and big so I can wear it over my stuff when it blows. Order your regular, everyday size for this one. Nice job OR!
