Mountain Hardwear  StretchDown Popover Down Hoodie - Men's

The XL is a perfect fit (im 6'1" 200 lbs). It is super warm with a thick puffy layer of down evenly distributed throughput the body, arms and shoulders. Seems thicker than the original stretchdown jacket i had years ago. The shell is soft and quiet yet seemingly durable. Warm on its own. Under a shell you'd be warm in sub freezing temperatures. Hood fits and adjusts well. Another well designed piece by MH.

Super warm! Purchased to stay warm walking and playing with the dog in the cold and snow and it more than does the job. Probably to warm for daily but late night and early mornings it’s the pick.

Well made . Comfortable. Relaxed fit . Pockets are convenient & useful. Winter protection great. Lightweight but still effective in cold weather .

Excellent in every way! In 6 foot 170lbs and the medium is perfect

My 850 fill puffy finally gave up the ghost early in the season. It was a comparable brand with plenty of mountain time under its belt. I always felt like the membrane was just a little too thin and it showed with how much damage I had inflicted over the years. I was working outdoor retail when the original StretchDown line launched and we weren't all too impressed. Heavy and starchy. It felt cumbersome and boxy. I am happy to report with this generation those feelings are absolutely gone. The material has been refined and feels smoother/softer to touch. It's quieter too. The seam pressed baffles do keep everything from moving around inside the jacket so I haven't noticed any cold spots. Kangaroo pocket is soft lined so the outer material isn't touching cold dry hands. I REALLY wish that it had been put near the collar area. I can see why it wasn't based on if it gets wet or you are breathing into it constantly, however, I do notice that my chin gets a little scratchy when in it for a long period of time. If you wear any kind of neck warmer it's a nice sealed warmth. I'm 5'7 at about 150Ibs and a Small fits me really well. Cuffs on the wrists are soft and also keep heat in incredibly well. It's easily the warmest jacket I own without any layering. Makes for a solid belay jacket for the cold starts. Plenty of compliments from both office friends and outdoor peers. Price is steep but it's been a great investment I hope to keep for years.
