Simond MT100 Hooded Down Puffer Jacket vs RYDCOT Men's Hooded Quilted Parka
Buy the Simond MT100 if you want a light, packable down layer for hiking, backpacking or everyday cold. It uses 800 fill-power down, weighs about 11 ounces and stuffs into its own pocket. The RYDCOT parka is the warmer, longer choice for standing around in wind and cold, but it is bulky, heavy and has no real spec sheet or track record. Owners rate the Simond highly; the RYDCOT has little verifiable feedback.
- Choose the Simond MT100 if you need a warm layer that packs small, works under a shell, and is built for trekking.
- Choose the RYDCOT parka if you want maximum coverage down to the knees for cold, windy days and don't need to pack it.
