Why We Like The Helium Down Jacket
We zip into the Helium Down Jacket when scaling rock and ice for a better view. The tightly woven fabric balances weather resistance and breathability while also holding its own against the vertical world's rough terrain. The elastic cuffs stay out of our way as we swing our axes, and the lofty fill protects us from the exposure's chill.

So many + elements to this jacket!
OR Designers went above and beyond with this jacket. The color is an obvious wow, but that just scratches the surface. + a little longer than your normal puffy gives added warmth for those cold days on the slopes or climbing in the mountains + soft lined pockets (all of them) invite you to warm your hands in there and feel safe putting your goggles, sunglases or clear glasses in with no fear of scratching + a high collar (with a soft chin liner) gives added warmth without using a separate neck gaiter. When replacing your down jacket, THIS is your only and best choice!

Warm and compressible!
The perfect jacket for wearing alone or layering under a shell. Packs up small if you need to stash it in a backpack. Five stars!

I wear this jacket daily and especially on this International Women's day I tip my hat to all the women of the mountains, united by our love of skiing. The friendships formed and connections forged are stories worth celebrating in style.

Second skin
This jacket is exactly what I hoped for. Because I run and hike in Northern California winter weather I needed something breathable, warm, and flexible. This jacket is so light and comfortable it feels like a second skin. Thank you OR!

Great combo of Fit, Form, Function
800 fill packs a lot of punch in warm, lightweight down performance jacket with useful features like multiple pockets and hem cinch cord. Less bulky looking than other down jackets. Small fit worked well for 5'2" petite woman, though sleeves a bit long. Lake color beautiful. Purchased as gift and now considering one for myself!

I like the softness and length.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for camping so I wanted the reinforced shoulders, compactibility and hopefully durability.

Warm and Light
I took this jacket backpacking in WV where the low at night was 10 degrees. Along with a few other Outdoor Research layers, it kept me warm at camp and while I was sleeping. I kept it on while hiking the next morning and when it warmed up I took it off. I was surprised at how cool I felt after taking it off. Also love how it packs into its own pocket. I highly recommend!

Perfect light but warm
Got this and took it on a 40 mile section hike and it was great. It is lightweight. When I got hot it stuffed well in the front of my pack.

Super warm jacket and true to size
I've been impressed with the warmth so far and I'm excited to really put it to the test this winter. I'm 5' 9", 135 lbs and got a small. The jacket fits great.
