Fitz roy vs rab - Patagonia Fitz Roy Down Parka - Women's

Purchased both to compare for trip to Sapporo in Feb. Both 800 down jackets are built for the cold. They’re big and fluffy. The RAB is longer in the back and covers more of my butt (good for sitting on cold surfaces) and has a warm fleece type material on the front of the neck. It also is made from a material that makes a “crinkle” sound that may annoy you as well as a zipper that is opposite of what I’m used to. The Patagonia Fitz Roy may be slightly sleeker, has zipper on conventional side and the hem is level. I love Patagonia, but chose to keep the RAB.
