Plasma 1000 down jacket men s review.

At the time of this review we ve been testing the montbell plasma 1000 for about two months of on and off use. Montbell also makes the plasma 1000 down jacket and it weighs only 4 8 oz 135 g over 40 lighter than the plasma 1000 alpine down parka. Despite the plasma 1000 down jacket appearing to be a hoodless version of the plasma 1000 alpine down parka it s not it has less than half as much down and has no pockets. As the name suggests the plasma jacket features 1000 fill power down which raises the bar for a premium down insulated jacket.

But that s not all. The benefits of using a jacket like this are obvious it s extremely lightweight making it easy to carry around and it still keeps you really stinkin warm. This spartan jacket also features montbell s 7 denier 25 g m 2 shell fabric for a garment weight of 4 8 oz 136 g for comparison a midweight wool baselayer weighs about 8 oz 227 g. Montbell plasma 1000 down jacket in use.
