"I’m normally between sizes and have been struggling to find a puff that fits how I want. This jacket is the fit I’ve been looking for, it’s also comfortable and warm. New go to puff."
"This jacket was worth every dollar spent. I haven’t gone a day without wearing it since I got it. It’s very warm and extremely comfy. Also very breathable."
"I love this thing. It’s so incredibly light but warm. It’s lighter than my hoodies and nearly as warm as my parka."
"Very warm jacket, able to wear just a T-shirt underneath and still be almost too hot. Very soft fabric that's comfy to wear. The stretchy fabric around the wrists are great and keep drafts out of the arms. Compacts into the left side pocket which is super handy when storing it in your bag. Definitely would buy again."
"Easily packable and very lightweight."
"I really like this hoody - it's incredibly functional. I use it as a mid layer or outer-layer depending on conditions. With proper layering, it keeps me warm below 0 yet functions just fine in 20-30s with just a wool tee. I particularly like the fit - I wear a L and need 35 sleeve length and this works great. Not at all boxy or snug. Loft is ideal and it traps heat well. Small details are a plus for me - construction appears solid and features are everything necessary without overkill. Classic BD, IMO."
"dope"
"This is one of the nicest jackets I've even put on. This was recommended as a heavyweight layer for Denali, although Black Diamond labels this as Med-weight."
"I shopped around and tried a lot of the big brands—Patagonia, Stio, North Face, Archteryx, Narrona. None of them fit like this one does. It’s slim enough in the waist that you don’t look overfitted and big enough to fit a later underneath. Importantly, the arms are long for taller people. It’s also buttery soft. For reference, I’m 6’3” and 200 lbs."
"Incredibly soft, lightweight, and warm. Perfect for freezing temperatures, blocking a fair amount of high-force wind."
