Buying a Down Coat - 800 fill vs 600 fill - What To Look For!

Thank you for the info man. Very helpful while I consider a puffer 👍

How do we evaluate the jackets warmth level online - like what to look for? I was trying to look up the 800 level vs other numbers. I bought one off eBay (haven’t received yet) but interested in others for different purposes. I have a Gotetex shell so got a small down used coat to put under my large woman’s shell. Doing this because sometimes I get lazy and don’t want to layer so much and think so much about it just to say warm, especially with kids laundry on top the layers end up being a lot to launder if u are out there 2-4 times per week (my son is on ski team and I’m a helper coach so we have to practice after school and drive up to hill about 1 to 2 hours away depending on weather and the resort!).

For NYC weather all you really need is a Gore-Tex TNF Mountain Jacket and a Zipped Compatible Fleece Liner and you are set, I know I’m set for the winter, most my jackets are Goretex and Fleece Windstoppers

[MrZimmaframe]

you can use liquid silicone to waterproof any jacket but check which material is compatible

So the feathers are just one aspect in a coat, the outer coat, and elastic around the openings all matter...

High loft Patagonia is 600 fill btw it's just filled more then the 800 sweater version

Good jackets but your review is alll over the damn place.

[IgneousEuro]

Why compare 4 jackets where one of which has a hard shell and the other 3 do not? Both Patagonia and Mammut have plenty of jackets that have a waterproof outer-shell with insulation. Also, in regards to the 'fill power', the higher fill power is the down's ability to trap air (body heat) making them warmer, so an 800 fill jacket will trap air better than a 600 fill jacket. It's all about how you layer in order to stay warm for different weather scenarios.

What's the name of the 800 fill jacket please

[MrVlad]

what do you think about Mammut Broad Peak Jacket ?

[Kstub]

The bottom zipper on the one mammut jacket is for belaying, not for ventilation

[bdailey]

Anyone of these jackets are warm with a hoodie under them.

[gummybear]

dude your not supposed to get down jackets wet!!! Always check the weather forecast and if there's even a chance of snow or rain you need to carry a shell. Down jackets are really only to be worn on cold sunny days. Synthetic down jackets are better for wet conditions

Hello. What color is the first Patagonia jacket?Where to buy?

[vegaswajeel]

where could you buy these jackets at a good price?

[royphair]

It's not really about fill power but the size of the panels the bigger the panels the warmer the jacket

[triple_gem_shining]

i thought this is great until i heard the prices. thats absurd

[SilverShamrock]

1st jacket looks more like a 600 to 650, you said on the video it is 800, highly unlikely looking at it

[-MrGoogle]

these jackets are crap if they get caught or hook on a fence or gate they not worse more then 1 cent
