Get a down jacket with a hood and these jackets are very good but Eddie Bauer makes great jackets and with some shopping around you can get 35 to 50% off the retail price. Good video 😊

[@Lonefyre1980]

Yes! I like Eddie Bauer products as well. Their First Ascent products are solid! I actually own a few pairs of their Guide Pro shorts and pants. Great flannels too. Thank you for watching.

Great in depth but simple comparisons! Thank you :D

Good video. I just ordered the Nanopuff because I got a smokin' deal on a discontinued color. Hopefully one day I get the Down Sweater too.

Where from?

[@garycywinski9440]

I love my down vest my down vest but not in damp conditions I was surprised how warm my Nano Puff vest is.

[@rm8262]

Hi Don, your old friend Ryan here. Bought the Micro Puff as a mid layer for skiing ⛷️

[@Lonefyre1980]

Cool! Haven't tried the Micro Puff personally, but I heard/read it's a great synthetic option warmer than Nano and still really light.

Great video, thanks 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

Thanks for watching!

I see this with yours too. The thing I have an issue with my nano puff is how that one side of the collar keeps folding towards my neck. Not an issue when fully zipped up but a bit irritating when I'm wearing it casually. I hope they will address this in future designs

Hey Don! wta, if you planning to buy rain jacket from patagonia (torrentshell 3l) would you prefer s size or m size. Thanks !

[@Lonefyre1980]

Hi. I prefer a size small in the rain jackets . Thanks for watching!

[@francescobuonaiuto1073]

HI I really like the down jacket without hood (light blue) where can I buy it?

[@Lonefyre1980]

Hi. Thanks for watching. Check Patagonia's website. The color is called "superior blue" but I don't think they currently stock that shade of blue. I saw a " wavy blue" but it is definitely lighter. You can also do a web search for patagonia superior blue down sweater. Some other retailers may still carry the color.

The nano puff is a slim jacket. Had to return

[@fergusmaclean3186]

Any reason not to go with the hooded option, and thoughts on that option for both?

[@Lonefyre1980]

Hi. Thanks for watching. Hooded vs no hood really just depends on personal preference and also use/activity. For my uses, I'm good with a warm beanie and I prefer not having a hood with "puffy" type jackets especially if layered under a shell which of course already has a hood too. Your uses/activities may be different and warrant the extra warmth of the insulated hood. If you are out in the cold/windy conditions for longer periods of time and a beanie in combination with a hood on your shell is not enough, the hooded options may he right for you.

Do you ever have issues with down coming out of your sweater? A lot of down comes out of mine.

[@Lonefyre1980]

Hi. I have had very minimal down coming out. I don't think any down jacket with traditional baffles is immune from some loss of down. However, compared to another down jacket I own from a different brand, my Patagonia definitely has lost much less down filling. If you think you are losing excessive amounts, contact Patagonia. In my experience their customer service has always been awesome. Thanks for watching.

[@nils_on_wheels]

I have these issues as well.

[@Jack-ye6fm]

Hi what colour is the green nano puff you have?

[@Lonefyre1980]

Hi. The nanopuff color is "Kelp Forest". I bought it in 2020 though so I'm not sure if they have that color in their current product lineup. Thanks for watching.

[@francescobuonaiuto1073]

..where can I buy ?

[@robjohnson9270]

Some things could be an email.....so much faster to read and get to the point....

[@solukhumbu911]

hi don, what is the color name o the down sweater u are wearing

[@Lonefyre1980]

Hi. It is "Superior Blue". I don't think Patagonia currently makes the down sweater in this color. Closest color would probably be "Passage Blue" which looks a bit darker. Thanks for watching.
