This is such a good quality item, everything about it is great. The fabric, the zippers, the lining. We live in Perth, Western Australia and don't get a long winter but it's a bit wet and chilly for 4 months of the year. This coat is perfect for those rainy days and cold nights. It's light enough to pop into a backpack and squishes down quite small. Looks really smart - I bought the navy in the sale. My son is tall but really slim and the XS fit perfectly. Warm without being heavy. Will be perfect to take to the UK when we visit. Loving the brand Alchemy Equipment which I have only just discovered!
I bought the Performance Down Parker for a planned trip to the UK in their winter. The combination of rain resistance and down insulation will be great for the wet winters in the UK. Great for travel as I only need to pack this instead of a rain coat and an insulated jacket. I am breaking it with a wet winter in Wellington NZ and it works a treat. I'm 6ft and 100kgs, and the XL fits just great.
A great fit, warm and can be worn for every occasion.
I managed to get in on the 25% insulation sale and haven't looked back. I was wearing an old ski jacket in the past and wasn't very work appropriate. It is slick enough looking for after work drinks, but functional enough that I am going to stay warm in the Wellington weather, biking to the train station. Great find.
Got a small, I'm 5'7" 140lbs and fits well. Warm and thoughtfully designed. Wish there was still a brown color.
