"Every little detail got extra attention to make one heck of a mother mega puff. I love this thing."
"The warmest parka I’ve owned so far. Tested at -25°C and it didn’t disappoint. However, you definitely pay the price for it."
"cant wait to test this out on my trip to the andes"
"The Black Diamond Men’s Mission Parka is a great jacket overall. However, I was disappointed to find that the insulation construction is sewn-through rather than baffled, which isn’t ideal for a down parka at this level. You can also see the down through the fabric, which doesn’t bother me but might for others."
"I bought my black diamond 13 years ago still have it. . The only reason for 4 stars is only after a couple of uses the down material has popped out of the"
"Perfect fit for going over all of your layers."
"Super warm and cozy while still feeling pretty durable and burly. Fits great, super roomy without being too floppy."
"I really like this jacket. It's great warmth for -20C. As another review noted, the sizing is a little different than my other BD jackets. It's long in the body, a little short in the sleeves (if you reach up), and the hood is large, but I find the hood works well despite feeling too big at first."
"Super warm, kept me going in Alaska in -40 temps."
"I could not ask for better outdoor equipment than Black Diamond. The jacket fits me like a glove. I found the hood a bit large, however, with a helmet, I can see where the extra size would help. It is warm? I tested it out wearing only a tank top. Went for a long walk and the jacket was PERFECT!"
