Take on the elements in the Mountain Hardwear Men's Nitrous Jacket. Designed with 800-fill goose down and featuring quilted construction to keep the down in place and eliminate cold spots, this mid-weight insulated jacket beats the chill of winter every time. Two hand-warmer pockets warm frozen digits while the Micro-Chamois lined chin guard never chafes and feels super soft against your skin. Full elastic cuffs and a drawcord hem seal in warmth and keep the elements at bay. With a sleek and streamlined design, this durable winter coat makes a great mid-layer on the mountain but also works on its own when temperatures are milder. With a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish that repels water and snow, the Mountain Hardwear Nitrous Jacket for men will keep you warm and dry no matter what Mother Nature has in store.

Great Down Sweater for the Slim
This is an excellent down sweater for those with a slimmer physique. I am 6' tall and 165lbs, and the medium fits me very well. It's nice to find a down sweater that is sized for those that are a little more lean. The body and sleeves have nice length to them, without having the cut through the body be too big and boxy. As usual, the quality from Mountain Hardwear is top notch and the jacket packs down into it's own stuff sack, practically disappearing it is so compressible. Not a single complaint about this jacket....excellent quality, very compressible while still retaining good warmth, and most of all, sized nicely for those of us who are a little slimmer.

excellent lightweight warmth
very light-weight, great fit and warmer than expected. I would only change 2 things (both of which would add weight): 1. add zippers to the hand warmer pockets 2. use a goretex-type waterproofing laminate on the exterior even without those changes, it's still an excellent light layer, easily packable and surprisingly warm.

Best Purchase Ever
For an 800 fill down jacket this is perfect in terms of space. Very thin, yet very warm. Perfect for many conditions. Excellent! I don't like just one thing- periodically small feathers go out of the jacket!

Great
For an 800 fill down jacket this is perfect in terms of space. Very thin, yet very warm. Perfect for many conditions. I do a lot of mountaineering and this is perfect for layering under shells and even under 300 weight fleeces. Excellent jacket!

Love It!
This is the first down jacket I've owned (except for the puffy michelin man style when I was a kid) and I absolutely love it. It's exceptionally warm, packable, cuts the wind well, and super light. I've shoveled snow with nothing on but a t-shirt underneath and been completely warm. My friend has a MH Zonal but I opted for the Nitrous for the added warmth and it was a good choice. I'm about 5'10" 170# and ordered the large based on other MH purchases. The torso fits perfectly although the sleeves are a bit long ... it may just be that I have short arms ... who knows. The only negative (for me) is that the external hand pockets are not zippered but not a huge deal based on the other great features and quality.
