My first puffer jacket! I bought this jacket over 3 weeks ago now and I have worn it every day even if it is too hot! I live in New Zealand, so it was a bit of a gamble but I love it! The whole 'international purchasing experience' was easy and quick! Very impressed - thanks Altrec!

Top quality jacket I am very pleased with my jacket. I was able to wear it on a camping trip to Yellowstone National Park. It was cold there in May. Customer service was very helpful with my order and I was able to get the color and size I wanted with their help. I received the jacket in time for my trip.

Perfect combination of style and function I bought this for my wife last spring and she wears it every chance she gets. Looks great on her. Keeps her warm on the coldest winter day. Construction is excellent and I have yet to see a feather come out of it which is more than I can say for my North Face vest. An impressive value.

Excellent experience! After experiencing difficulty find the "right" jacket for my daughter, I came across the perfect one (exactly as pictured) - very pleased. Excellent quality!

awesome I purchased this jacket for my wife since we just moved to Georgia. This is excellent jacket. It very warm and soft to the touch. Its not bulky. I was surprised the small box they shipped her jacket and mine in. I thought they only shipped one jacket.

a present for my daughter in Alaska She was thrilled by the warmth and the color. The construction was solid and sturdy. The gift arrived quickly and was correct as ordered. I would order from Altrec again.

Great Jacket Perfect combination of style and function, I purchased the subzero and Lodown jacket as comparison and ended up only keeping the Downtown. This jacket has the warmth of a 650 jacket without the huge bulkiness. My wife likes it so much, that I am getting the male version for myself...

Comfortable I think this is a very warm and comfortable jacket. The style of down jacket is nice and it has a nice fit. The only problem I have with it, is that the sleeves of the coat are a little big in diameter. Although the jackets(front and back) are not bulky the sleeves are.

Great Winter Jacket I bought this jacket for my mother that lives in Idaho. She loved it. It is very warm without the bulky look of normal down jackets. The super soft fabric around the collar is wonderful. It provides a nice color contrast.I like it so much I might have to buy one for myself.

Perfect!!! I am so excited about this jacket! I can't wait for cold weather to come just so I can wear it! The jacket fits really well just make sure that you follow the size chart guidelines. The service was excellent, it shipped fast, and the jacket is better than I pictured! The price can't be beat for such a high quality company.

Nice warm jacket but not really for the backcountry This is a great jacket with super fuzzy fleece lining and stylish looks. It is warm without being overly puffy. It is too heavy for the backcountry though, I have been using it around town. Great for going out to dinner after a chilly day of ice climbing or wear it to work during a snowstorm.

The warmest jacket I ever owned! I bought this jacket just to wear to the gym because of its sporty look, but I find I want to wear it all the time. It's so warm and cozy I don't want to take it off. It's a little puffy, but it doesn't make me look huge. The outer fabric is soft and silky, inside is plush. I am 5'5" average build and it fits perfectly. I got it in blue and I love the color.

I love this jacket! Altrec was excellent to deal with and quick shipping for a fair price.
The jacket is amazing! The fit is perfect - I'm a plus-sized, short girl and ordered the XL. It fits great - but I'll have no use for the bottom drawstring (LOL). I love the Micro-Chamois lining the upper part - it feels AMAZING and I bet it's going to feel REALLY good when the weather gets below zero here in NJ. ...Now I'll be able to go outside with my boys and play in the snow without getting cold. ;)
