This jacket is a major disappointment, due to the poor quality with the insulation showing or having a shadow appearance to the front of the jacket. It gives the jacket a very dull, dingy, or a dirty look. Every single seam or quilt stitching line has a dingy or dirty black color showing through. I have the Zing color and it has the same insulation shadow issue as the review posted with the white color. Even more surprising is that it is a "Titanium" jacket.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live in Chicago, one of the coldest cities in the U.S. during winter. Since I walk a lot from the train station to my job or the gym, I’m usually carrying a lot of things with me. I didn’t want to add more weight by using one of those heavy, bulky jackets, so I spent months looking for something thin and light that would still keep me warm. I have to say, I’m very impressed with this jacket. It has definitely kept me warm during these horrible winter months. However, I will say—this jacket doesn’t do well on it’s own once the temperature drops below 15°F. You’ll need another layer underneath, like a sweater plus ur regular shirt. That being said, it’s currently -9°F in Chicago, and I’m doing just fine with a shirt, a regular sweater, and this jacket. I also took this on a trip and loved how you can fold it into one of its pockets, so it doesn’t take up a lot of space.
I bought this jacket size XL in February 2025, and it fits great. I stand 6' and 226 pounds, and it is very light in weight and comfortable. As far as warmth, I haven't had the chance to take it to Mt. Charleston to give it a rating. However, I will be going there this weekend when the lows are in the 20's. I will give an update upon my return.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was time to change my 12 year old down jacket of Columbia even though it was in great condition. I gave it to someone. Now I bought this one. I saw couple of negative comments but after I saw the jacket and put it on, I see that it is as thin as any 700 fill goose down jacket.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really disappointed with this jacket. When the jacket arrived it was dirty and had stains on it. Additionally the jacket is see-through, which I was not expecting. I think this is because the down is not evenly distributed. Overall this jacket is a low quality product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coat is nice and warm. It is very good quality and design. The only issue I have is the cuffs are too loose and not adjustable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very warm. Fits well with space for layers. Well made! Looks great!
