Reviews

Not as good as they say

"The coat shown on the model looks much more bulkier. I guess to say it has 650 down could be true but it depends on how much. I’m disappointed with this purchase as the jacket is not as warm as I expected. I purchased this item on sale so good at that price. Certainly would have returned it if I paid full price. I’ll use it in my sleep system at night when in a sleeping bag. True to size and with a draw string waist it can be comfortable to wear. Very compact and lightweight which makes it easy to use during through hikes. Would only recommend if you are looking for a lightweight pack able jacket that would suit in mild temperatures"

— Philip N. (1/5)

Great product

"Received this Jacket in the mail. Great product at an even better price."

— Sharad B. (5/5)

Great - this is my second one!

"Replacing an identical Heli Down Jacket v1 from many many years ago which has been moved down the wardrobe into outdoor work gear - after sterling service the down is now a bit packed down. The first thing I looked for was a replacement heli and - yay - this is exactly what I wanted. Expecting it to last for many more years based on my experience."

— Brad C. (5/5)
