Who This Product May Suit
This jacket may suit buyers looking for a men’s down jacket with waterproof, breathable protection for general use or hill walking. The regular fit and adjustable hood, hem and cuffs are relevant if you want a jacket that layers over casual clothing and can be tightened for coverage.
Important Limitations
The jacket is size L, so the selected size needs to match the wearer. The stated centre back length is given for Medium, so buyers comparing length should note that the measurement is not for every size.
Before You Decide
Confirm the size, fit and colour before choosing an offer. Compare the waterproof, breathable and insulation figures with the conditions and layering you need. If the jacket length matters, check how the stated Medium back length relates to the size you want.
