Great Jacket

2 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this synthetic down hoodie for 4 years now. It has been with me on many winter adventures, alpine summits, and kept me warm where I live in the fridged Gunnison, CO. I use it under my marmot shell, and when frequently moving, (with a quality base layer) it has kept me warm down to -35 with no wind chill (staying still is a different story, though). One thing I like most about this jacket is the fact that it is featherless. It may be a bit more bulky, but I value being able to stay warm even if things get a bit damp... knowing I can just put it on and be warmer no matter what is a big plus. It also has good geometry, and allows for good range of motion. It's not too boxy or blousey, but it's not too tight as to restrict movement. The other thing is its construction. It has been stuffed into, and pulled out of backpacks and stuff sacks hundreds of times. It has probably been worn for somewhere around 600-800 days total. The zippers have been zipped thousands of times. It has sustained burn holes from sitting around campfires (see patches). It has been run through the washing machine. It has been brushed by bushes and tree branches. It has been tossed around and is always on the go. After 4 years of abuse, the only noticeable wear is some loose stitching down by the bottom (see pictures). This does not affect the functionality of the jacket, and it will continue to be used. If you're looking for a good synthetic warmth layer, I wouldn't hesitate to give this one a try. This jacket works in a motley assortment of situations, and even looks good too! Good for a night on the town just as well as it's good for stomping about the woods. Hope this is useful to someone... Happy trails -G

So nice I bought it twice

4 years ago

I love this jacket enough to have bought it a second time after someone stole my first one from a pile of jackets heaped in the corner of a room at a (pre-pandemic) party. The thief had good taste since there were many others to choose from! It's stylish, flexible, impressively warm, and handles rain better than regular down. As someone who prefers vegan clothing, it's nice to not have to settle! As many others have suggested, the only obvious improvement would be a drawstring in the hood to keep it better fitted to your head, especially for windy weather. Also, I'm a 5'8" male with an athletic, but not overly muscular build by any means, and the medium fits great. The small was way too tight under the arms.

Exactly what it says it is

6 years ago

Had this about 3 weeks now and I've brought it out for a few days of skiing in the Wasatch, some snowshoeing, and just been wearing it around a ton. Extremely warm and lightweight, fit is snug but still moves great, extremely warm, and looks super clean. I got a medium--I'm a muscly 5'8 185--I wanted something tighter for layering purposes, and its been perfect under my (Marmot too actually) shell. Bummer it doesn't have a hood drawstring but hood still fits great. This jacket is what a down hoody should be. No its not waterproof - its not supposed to be. No extraneous features just super warm and light. Big fan.

Fantastic jacket

5 years ago

I went around and around about which jacket to get, as I'm a total jacket nerd and really appreciate the technical qualities (or lack thereof) in my outdoor gear. This jacket is hands down the best one I've owned. Super warm, more windproof than I expected, and the insulation has stayed nice and lofted. The hood fits great, and provides that final bit of protection from the elements when needed. As a skinny guy who's 6'3", jackets rarely have the sleeve length I need, but this one is perfect. (I ordered the XL) The torso length is great, and plenty long enough. (doesn't rise up way over my waist with arms raised) And, the looks are fantastic. Highly recommend this jacket.

This jacket makes me look forward to cold nights

5 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all, this jacket has a very good feature set, including the exterior chest pocket and adjustable drawcord waist. I wish it also had handwarmer pockets and a drawcord hood. It feels soft on comfortable to wear. I used this on several trips on the AT in Virginia with lows in the 20s to 30s, and i stayed warm in the evenings with this jacket. I even slept in it so I could save weight by bringing a lighter sleeping bag. I see no loss of loft or warmth, and it's easier to wash and dry than down. And a final bonus - which convinced my wife to buy a women's featherless jacket - it NEVER sheds feathers.

Great Jacket

5 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Standing in line at Zion National Park waiting for the ranger station to open freezing to death. I asked a friend if he had a jacket handy that I could borrow. He handed me the Avant Featherless Hoody. As soon as I put that jacket on I immediately noticed how much nicer this jacket was from all the jackets I own (I'm a jacket addict). Standing 15 minutes in the blowing freezing wind became bearable! I took all the information down from this jacket and ordered on in green as soon as I got home! I am a happy camper with this jacket. It is my go to jacket for all my adventures!!!

Do not underestimate this jacket!!

3 years ago

This lightweight jacket perform better or just a much as a heavyweight coat. Keeps all body heat inside that allows you to stay warm and toasty. I recommend to not over dress with layers underneath because you will sweat if you have on to many layers.

warmer than my down

6 years ago

I love this Jacket and this is coming from someone that has a lot of jackets, I might have a jacket problem, but this is my new go to jacket. It is much warmer than my similar down jackets. I also like that I don't need to worry about washing or other special treatment that I need to do with my down coats. I love that they used thinsulate for their insulation, I feel that its much better than Primaloft, I actually don't buy any thing with Primaloft insulation anymore because I am always cold with primaloft insulation, and I run hot. long story short this is a great jacket.

Toasty synthetic warmth for mountain adventures!

6 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tested the Avant exclusively in my home state of Colorado up to elevations near 13,000 ft. in a range of weather from -5℉ (-20.6℃) and dumping snow to sunny and 55 ℉(12.8℃). During that time I really came to love the puffy for its warmth, durability, and ability to excel on each of my adventures. On hut trips I typically head out into the night with a big puffy jacket and pants to photograph starry skies over the cabin but on both of these trips I substituted larger puffy for the mid-weight Avant. Filled with synthetic insulation the equivalent to 700 fill power down it kept out the cold nicely while standing still at 5℉ (-15℃) when worn with puffy pants, below that temperature I started to feel the cold unless I got moving to generate more heat. While skiing a full day at Copper Mountain I was almost perfect from the cold snowy morning to the sunny blue-bird afternoon; I briefly got hot when working harder in steep moguls and north facing back bowls. It's definitely too warm for me to wear when skinning uphill, but I'm usually only wearing a thin shell or base-layer at that point.
