Even in the worst Purcell blowfest, you can keep going in this insulated, utterly durable jacket. It has a bomber 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable shell, made from 100 recycled content. Stuffable Thermogreen insulation (90 recycled), quilted to prevent shifting, keeps you warm; an easy-gliding mesh interior lets you move. The internal powder skirt has gripper elastic to fend off drafts; a neck gasket does the same. Other details include a 2-way-adjustable hood, a chamois-lined neck, generous pit zips and articulated elbows. Pocket rundown: two handwarmers, one padded chest pocket for an audio device, a left bicep pocket and three internal pockets. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

Great jacket
VERY warm, zips tight, collar stands tall. Does run a little big. Not as trim as I would prefer, but not too bulky. Overall, a solid A-.
