Reviews

Comfy, practical jacket for not too cold weather

"I’ve been wearing this a couple of times since the purchase couple of months ago. Similar to other Kathmandu jackets, this one doesn’t disappoint. Like its quality, fitting,. This one is ideal for not so cold days, in between seasons wear. It’s roomy, but not too loose, exactly what I want. The size is consistent with the rest of the Kathmandu jackets I got. Will use it a lot as my essentials item in coming spring season."

— Wing L. (5/5)

Great Light Jacket

"Excellent quality and in great condition after being delivered. Value for money and jacket appearance is impeccable. Thanks for everything. Cheers, Shevy"

— Shahrvin B. (5/5)

Jacket

"Love,Love,Love my new jacket I brought one about four year's ago and have only just had to replace it 🙂 my old one I use on the farm now, so thank you and I love it also as it was on sale for a good price. Thankyou Kathmandu team."

— Soraya L. (5/5)

Amazing

"Love my jacket light but warm also the colour is amazing !!!!! I got and xtra small and I’m normally a small. Fits great"

— Leesa D. (5/5)

As described

"I bought this as my current puffer is a lot thicker and doesn’t pack small for multi day hiking. This one isn’t as warm but with layers underneath & a rain shell it’s just what I need! I’ll still take my thicker puffy in winter/colder conditions but this one will be my main puffer!"

— Donna G. (5/5)

Repeat

"Replaced my old heli as it had a couple of rips and I was losing feathers. Loved that one so much I had to get a repeat. It's my go to for backcountry hikes, warm, lightweight and packs down small (into it's own pocket)."

— Shannon H. (5/5)

Nice jacket. Very light. Maybe

"Nice jacket. Very light. Maybe a little thinner than expected."

— Caroline B. (5/5)

Measurements before purchasing

"I'd forgotten that I am losing weight and have lost more since my last purchase and ordered the same size so as you can see from my photos, it is roomy. I can work with this for layering so it's not a big deal for me. I like that the sleeves opening is elasticised too otherwise, they would be too long for my arms. For context, I am 5 foot 3, and 93kgs, small waist but hip and top heavy. It is very lightweight but warm for my needs."

— Naomi S. (5/5)
