Why We Like The Black Diamond Access Down Jacket
Keeping us warm on active days, the Access Down Jacket is Black Diamond's most versatile down insulator for cold crags, ski tours, and chilly days around town. Its 700-fill down insulation is incredibly lofty and surprisingly warm for how little it weighs. The insulation packs down small to fit in packed duffels or ski packs with ease, and HyperDry's hydrophobic treatment helps the down retain its lofty warmth in moisture-riddled environments like a damp tent. Black Diamond treated the jacket's ripstop shell with DWR for durable water-resistance that beads raindrops, snowflakes, and light moisture right off the surface.

Sleeves way too long

I wanted to like this jacket but it did not do it for me. The sleeves are too long and there is hardly any elastic on the cuff. So it just droops over my hands. They need to put a real Velcro closure on the cuffs. I also found the jacket too light and not warm enough for my needs in cold weather here in Northeast. This is more a mid layer. I have an excellent Black Diamond Shell but this jacket disappoints.

Excellent fit and comfortable warmth!
This is one of the best men's down hoodies on the market. The fill is thicker than most, but the cut of the fit doesn't make you look like the Michelin Man.

Perfect for a Peruvian Pilgrimage!
I needed a warm mid-layer coat for our trip to Peru - the Access Down Hoody was it. I was looking for the warmth of a sleeping bag but needed it to be packable and fit under my waterproof Shell jacket. This jacket did it all. It was super warm when I needed it, especially at night while sleeping in a mountain hut. It has an amazing front top pocket that is easily accessible with another layer on top. I love that the hood keeps my neck and head warm, and keeps the wind away. This is one great down puffer, great work Black Diamond.

Nice puffy, if only it fit.
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
- Size Bought:
- XL
- Height:
- 6' 2"
- Weight:
- 226
I really like the build quality and feel of this jacket, but it was too big in almost every regard. I'm 6'2 and 226 lbs. and the XL hung off of me. For sanity, I compared sizing against another puffy I own, also an XL. Had I known, I would have stepped down the size to a large.

Great Fit!
This jacket is true to size, roomy, comfortable, and warm. I'm looking forward to testing it during the winter month while moving in the mountains.

The jacket seems great, but
The jacket seems great, but both man and my wife’s fit really big. The sizing charts matched our normal sizes, but the jackets are a full size too big.

Warm Coat
The coat might be a little bulky and way a few ounces more, but you can definitely feel the warmth of this coat a lot more than those coats that way a few ounces less. The coat is a real mountain tool and being manufactured in Vietnam always has the best sewing that I've seen. The coat is a little large for adding extra layers but not bulky.
