I purchased this using a military discount as a treat to myself ahead of a backpacking trip in Patagonia. The quick drying synthetic down was appealing to me and I've wanted to try this jacket for some time now. Functionally, it's outstanding. Unfortunately the stitching on the sleeves and armpits is subpar. I have been burning ends of loose stitching with a lighter since I took the jacket out of the packaging. This is a $600 piece of kit without the discount. I want to support American companies and buy American made products, but the stitching on this is worse than my "civilian" prima lochi jackets that are made abroad.

Wouldnt know how good it is because my wife stole it immedistely. So it MUST be exceptionally warm and cozy. And durable because she ruins all her clothes, but not this jacket!
