Peak Performance BL Down Jacket - Men's
Excellent jacket
By Dag E M December 23, 2012
Looked at this jacket in Oslo, and the price tag was 1050 USD. Found that a little pricy, and was very happy when I saw this jacket at 350USD her at DOG. The jacket is excellent for my use, mostly around town. Have it in black, which is fairly neutral compared to the light blue. The jacket is pretty long and heavy, and has a good hood. The outer material seems good, but I have not tried it in rain or wet snow yet.
It is warm, but not too warm like a Canada Goose. At this price, it is a no brainer. Normal price in Norway, it is not worth the money. Regular price in the US, it is decent, but there are probably other jackets out there that gives better value for the money.
The other review on this jacket is based on the regular price, and can be a bit misleading.
