"When I opened the packaging and lifted this jacket up it felt so light that I thought it wouldn’t be great at keeping me warm. I was very wrong! This jacket is perfect. It folds into one of the pockets making it great for travelling, it is light and it is toasty warm. Size wise it probably runs a little large but, it’s a jacket so if you need to, you can put extra layers underneath. Highly recommend."
"Pretty disappointed. First time buying a down alternative, and last. This jacket is not warm. It is as good as a windbreaker. Looks nice but definitely not what I expected from a light puffer jacket on the insulation front! Wish I could return it but of course you don’t know these things until you try them ‘out there’."
"Bought this for my son and he loves it. He says it is super warm, lightweight and packs up into nothing. He recently used it on a camping trip to the snow and said it was amazing. Does run big however, which is perfect for layering underneath. If only wearing a tshirt underneath, you could even size down."
"Well insulated and stylish"
