great super-lightweight down jacket

Written on May 18, 2019

I think that Kuhl makes the best lightweight down jackets on the market. One of the best things is "body mapping" - there's no down under arms or on the sides; it cuts off extra bulk and creates a more fitted look + it's super breathable. At the same time it's not too snug, that's why it's so great for skiing/ climbing. The down is also stitched in fine lines on the inside but there 's an extra layer of fabric on the outside which helps avoiding the look of a plastic trash bag. As the dawn is stitched so thoroughly one doesn't need to worry about washing the jacket - it'll look as good as new, no misplaced lumps of dawn or "hollow" spots. I definitely prefer this model to those down sweaters made by Patagonia.

great for hot humid weather

this is a perfect half-jacket/half-t-shirt for a humid summer when you don't want to put your jacket on and yet you don't want your shoulders exposed. It has 3 pockets which I don't find very useful but I guess you can put something not very heavy in them if you want to. It's roomy but I still won't size down. I am definitely buying another one!
