Light, warm, comfortable

Ranked #356 - Men's Down Jackets
May 7, 2009
This jacket is very warm, comfortable, and pretty light for the warmth. The hood is insulated and stows into the collar which zips shut. I was able to actually stuff the entire jacket into one of the front hand pockets (Although this is not an intentional feature, I was just testing to see if you could) To give you an idea of the compressibility. I do not recommend doing this though as it is not designed to do that and you risk damaging some of the seams as it is a tight squeeze.
