Reviews & Ratings for Black Diamond Stance Belay Parka - Women's — 1 review — Page 1

Ordered for my wife who is always cold. Unfortunately, the large was too small, but I was so impressed with this piece I ordered one for me. Why did I choose this in the first place? 5.6 oz Primaloft Silver Continuous filament insulation. Continuous filament insulations are far more durable than chopped staple. So durable infact that this jacket is NOT even quilted, the insulation is only sewn in at the edges. This means less cold spots and more loft. The un-coated Pertex nylon shell is excellent. Fit, finish, details, all excellent. Two things that are not my favorite but are not deal breakers: Hood is a single pull cord, so it lacks control. Cuffs are large and loose, so they slide down easily if not wearing gloves. Still, really impressed with this piece.
