- Is ThermoBall as warm as down?
- It is close for its weight and keeps insulating when wet, which down does not. Down still wins on warmth per ounce and packability in dry cold.
- Can I wear it in rain?
- It handles light rain and snow thanks to the water-repellent shell. It is not a waterproof hardshell, so skip it for heavy or prolonged rain.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash cold and tumble dry low. Tumble drying helps restore the synthetic fill's loft.
- How does it fit?
- It is cut to layer over a sweater, with a long parka length. Some wearers find the sleeves run long.
- Does it have a hood?
- Yes, it has an attached hood, plus a two-way front zipper and hand pockets.
- Is it good for mild winters?
- It is built for real cold. In mild climates it will likely feel too warm for everyday wear.
