Pros | Spacious dimensions, super comfortable, great loft, lightweight, made in the USA | Best-in-class warmth, legit draft collar, lightweight, exceptional loft | Super lightweight, incredible loft, snag-proof zipper, cozy hood | Excellent zipper and hood, awesome loft, great warmth-to-weight ratio | Spacious, reasonable price, versatile |
Cons | Expensive, awkward hood, good but not great zipper | Really pricey, kind of bulky, awkward hood closure | Uncomfortably narrow dimensions, bare-bones design, noisy fabric | Narrow leg dimensions, no draft collar, heavier and bulkier than some 3-season options | Heavy, bulky, just average down insulation |
