Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

No. It is a lightweight down layer meant for cool weather, travel and layering. For freezing temperatures, wear it under a shell or choose a heavier down jacket.

How small does it pack?

It compresses into a small bundle that fits in a daypack or carry-on, though Lands' End does not include a stuff sack.

Does it run true to size?

It has a relaxed fit, so many buyers size down for a closer cut. It is cut to layer over a sweater.

No. The shell is water-repellent and handles light rain, but seams are not sealed and down loses loft when soaked.

It is a short jacket, about 28 inches long in size medium, ending around the hip.

Can I machine wash it?

Yes, with a down-specific detergent on a gentle cycle, then tumble low with dryer balls to restore loft.

Our take on the Lands' End Men's Wanderweight Ultralight Packable Hooded Down Jacket

The Wanderweight is Lands' End's ultralight hooded down jacket, built to stuff into a bag and come out when the weather turns. It has a full zip with an interior storm flap, a water-repellent polyester/nylon shell, and a relaxed cut that leaves room for a sweater underneath. It is a light layer, not a winter coat: think travel, cool mornings and sudden shifts in temperature. Against packable down rivals it trades a slimmer, more technical cut for a roomier fit and a lower down fill than premium alpine brands.
