Are you East Asian? If so they tend to not have body odor from sweat. Just curious to see if this contributed to the lack of Odor

How to order it

How to bye it

can we dry clean this?

thannks

Uniqlo vs this?? almost same price, I can't decide..

Its a great jacket. Warm enough when you do walk outside and too warm when driving with it on lol.

I agree with the collar thing, it would look better if it stood up like Arc’teryx. If decathlon put a hood string adjustment to tighten it up, that would make it stand up, and it might then dominate the lightweight jacket market.

Im from Ireland and i bought one of these jackets in 2021 and its my go to colder weather jacket. I have a few high end expensive down jackets but this does me most of the year. I really like it and im going to buy a new one in a different colour. Only downside is that is has jumped up 40% in price in three years. I paid €49 for my original and it now retails at €69.

So you traveled all the way to Europe to do a clothes review? lol. That’s awesome! 😅I most definitely will get this when I go.

if you machine wash, you have to put it on delicates , normal wash would destroy the strength of the seams and cause feather leakage

Hygiene is about more than odor. Wash your clothing and stop bragging about lack of stink. Dirty clothes are dirty, smell or not.

I have the synthetic down version, do you have any info on that one? like, does it keep you warm just like the RDS down material or less? Thank you

That’s nothing. I wore merino wool socks from Smartwool for 30 days in a stretch without washing them hiking in the Himalayas. They wd smell at the end of the day but always smelt fresh in the morning.

Thank you so much for the honest review..... hard-to-find sometimes!!!

What size you wear

great review! for jacket sizing, what size is your chest in inches?

Problem with Merino is they easily develop holes.

is this jacket comparable to the Patagonia down sweater

try 449631

I have 2 ultra jackets and 1 vest from Uniqlo. Washed them so many times. Oldest of the three is over 10 years. None of them leak feathers that much, so I don't know what you're talking about.

Thanks for the great informative video. Any chance of price coming down on or before Black Friday?

You deserve more subs man!

Amazing bro!!! Thank you!

are those seam tapes silver or black on yours?

excellent video that confirmed my information about this down sweater)))subscribed

The feather leak is normal

Looks great!

I am trying to minimize my wardrobe as well as get versatile clothes for travel and I definitely want to get this in black but I cant decide if I should get the Concrete color as well. Most of my pants are grey so there wouldnt be a lot of contrast unless I wore black or light grey joggers instead of my grey jeans (my black chinos are usually only for the rare formal event).

Can I ask how tall you are and chest size? I would like to order one but don't want to mess up the size.

Can I have them now pls

Would this shirt be good in the gym?

They actually do use a high quality zipper. If you look carefully, you can see that it's YKK brand. I think what you might not like is the tiny size of the zipper which makes it somewhat difficult to utilize? It does help keep the jacket as light as possible though.

just saw your review, and I can confirm this after 4 years of wear, that this down jacket leaks feathers like no tomorrow. I always use a laundry net for most uniqlo products because, although they are higher quality for price, they are not as durable as Uniqlo claims. FYI for all future Uniqlo buyers. Your video was very helpful. I'm going to Taiwan for a month, and your review helped me to prepare for another emergency jacket: Uniqlo Pocketable Parka. LOL hope this one lasts too.

support from philippines. new sub here

I'm so confident in merino clothing, i carried only 2 t-shirts, two undies and two pairs of socks , one midlayer and a jacket for a six week travel in Argentina. It packs so light, i only carried handlugage

Some review said the top roller portion are not even weather seal/ rain resist. Any soaking situation happened inside your bag?

Wait, are you a native Hawaiian? I dont know if I can listen to you about this topic! lol jk It does seem like a good deal.

Wool is a natural fiber and as with all-natural wool/ fur/hair (same thing) have a temperature range from summer to winter temps. Cool in summer, warm in winter. Wash with a neutral soap. Squeeze the water out. Don't wring or you may felt the wool. lay the garment on a towel and roll the towel tightly and squeeze. . At this point the garment will be slightly damp to the tuch and wear able. It will dry on your body in a few minutes. After about 5 washing give the garment a lanolin bath to soften the wool and make it more water resistant, which will decrease drying time and increase evaporation rate. All wool is antimicrobial and antibacterial. That is why they don't smell. You can find lanolin instruction on You tube

I have one in black. It's my to 32ish degree jacket. Colder, I have the Fjallraven Expedition Pack Down Hoodie jacket. Which is around 214USD.

Great video! We wear mostly Merino wool while traveling long term. It performs so well in both cold and hot weather. I have a dress from Wool& (sister to Wool&Prince). 🌺✈️ Heidi

I believe its more about you and how cool you are 👍 just wash your self and your merino wool when it starts to🤢

Great video, If you continue making videos like this I cam see your content sky rocketing. Im thinking about getting this shirt and I think you sold me

I love you 💕

You can wear a Down Jacket as part of your layer system under another coat in extreme weather. I use down jackets like they are Jumpers .... I have about 8 - 10 of them ... and my first hooded down Jacket [brand new with tags] only cost me £15 including post, from Ireland. I actually bought a decathlon hooded down jacket just a few moments ago ... seriously ... for only £18 inc post .... and the tag on it says its full down [no mention of feathers] so I'm guessing it's probably not the forclaz trek 100 [it says : Down Jacket Full Down Grey ... on the label]. It is the same design, but without the FORCLAZ logo on the left arm. I'm an XL so I bought a 3XL, and it should arrive in 3 days. PS: I plan on cutting up most of the Down Jackets I own to make other things ... the cheapest one I've bought cost £5 inc post ... and once, I bought an XL down gilet [BNWT] for £14 from Ireland ... but got sent a BNWT 2XL 400 fill down Regatta Jacket instead [the tag on that one said £250]. Edit : I just noticed in a photo that it has a "Quechua" logo on the seam by the right pocket ... the Decathlon label is on the inside.

It’s horrible. Losing feather hour three. Running errands!

4:08 Now it all makes sense as to why you Have very little knowledge about down jackets. The only 2 down jackets you own are cheaper crappy ones. There is a reason other jackets cost more. It’s because they are higher quality, have higher quality down and more of it inside the jacket.

Even there website claims he will only keep you warm down to 5°C under intense activity. Very important distinction. There is very little down in there.

This down jacket costs very little for a reason, it will only keep you warm during a summer hike at night assuming you’re wearing layers underneath. It certainly isn’t for cold weather although that depends on what your definition of cold weather is.
