Pros & Cons
Pros
The jacket fits me very well. I wish they had made it easier to pack with a two way zipper on one of the pockets for easy fold into pouch. The loop on the cheaper jacket is terrific, one you've probably never seen on any other jacket.

Highlights
Quality
This lightweight, down jacket is just perfect for the pnw.

Packaging/appearance
Was devastated when somehow (ok, i am a klutz) ripped the sleeve.
Competitiveness
This is a well-made jacket that fits perfectly and i would definitely recommend it.
I will continue being a loyal customer.
I bought this because i think it is a little more packable than an artificial fill jacket with similar protection from the cold.

Keep in mind that this isnt the toughest jacket material so i wouldnt take it on anything requiring heavier ripstop material because this probably wont perform

I ordered a new jacket and paid for a new jacket and it was obviously a returned used jacket because there was a handwritten note in the jacket pocket

I expect it would be good for temperatures in the 20s if you have layers underneath

The first one i ordered arrived with a 2 inch slit in the right shoulder probably a result of careless use of a box cutter
