Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

It works as a light layer for cool days and mild winters. For freezing temperatures, wear it under a shell or choose a heavier down jacket.

Does it really pack down small?

Yes. The faux-down fill compresses well, so it stuffs into a daypack or carry-on with room to spare.

The nylon shell resists light moisture, and synthetic fill keeps some warmth when damp. It is not waterproof, so bring a rain shell in steady rain.

Down is warmer for its weight. This jacket is easier to care for, cheaper to make and still keeps warmth when damp.

No. It has a high neck instead, which covers the throat but leaves the head exposed.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low with dryer balls to restore loft. Avoid fabric softener and high heat.
