Men's Ultra Lightweight Hooded Down Jacket

It's a very warm jacket for the (remarkable) weight but I agree with others that the material is too thin. My wife uses it for walking the dog and there's already multiple small nicks all over the arms. I would not call a mountaineering jacket. It would be great to put on for stops on a walk or at a base camp but against rock or brushing against trees, it's going to tear. I do love the Jokull though.

The warmth you get for such a lightweight jacket, amazing.

I'm not a big bloke (5'11'') but the XL was never going to do the job and facilitate range of movement enough to climb.
Because of the immediate decision to return I was never able to evaluate how well it performed when put to the test. From the look and feel it didn't give me the impression it would give much warmth. Yes, its a lightweight but also yes, its £225 !!
I would have chosen not to review and give them a chance as some gear I've bought previously was pretty good but their returns policy is no refund on original postage and they don't pay for the return postage, so I won't be purchasing from them over the internet again and wanted to advise others the same. Buying clothes over the internet is always a risk but if their largest size doesn't fit a 5'11'' guy and it costs you £15 to find out then I'll go elsewhere.
