Is this jacket warm enough for real winter?

The 90/10 duck down fill gives solid warmth for cold days, and buyers say it is warm without being bulky. For deep cold or long time outdoors, it works best as a mid layer under a shell.

How does it pack for travel?

It folds down into its own front zipper pocket, so it takes little room in a bag. The water-resistant shell also shrugs off light rain and snow.

No. The jacket has no hood, and some buyers say they wish it did. A hat or a hooded layer underneath covers that gap.

How does the fit run, especially in the sleeves?

Buyers generally find it fits close and true to size, but several say the sleeves are too slim for the body size. If you layer thick sweaters underneath, size up or check the sleeve fit.

How should I wash and dry it?

Down jackets need a gentle wash with a down-specific detergent and a low tumble dry with dryer balls to loft the fill back up. Avoid regular detergent and high heat, which can strip the down's oils.

The jacket itself, with its two zippered front pockets and chest logo. It does not come with a separate stuff sack; the front pocket serves as the packable pouch.
