The Feathered Friends Eos, named for the goddess of the dawn, is our favorite quiver-of-one model for its extraordinary warmth for weight and versatility. When we don this jacket, it's as if the sun's rays come out, beaming warmth to our core. With remarkably high quality 900+ fill down, the Eos is always up to whatever task you ask it to do. It excels on backpacking, hiking, skiing, or climbing trips, and the high-quality down makes it an exceedingly light and compressible jacket, especially for the warmth. Feathered Friends also uses Pertex Quantum fabric, designed to keep the wind out and still air inside the baffles, increasing the jacket's warmth.
Feathered Friends streamlined the features to be so light and nimble, and it's a relatively simple but adequately featured model for most mountain adventures. It's a little puffier, so it's not as easy to layer under a hardshell jacket; if it's snowing, you'll find it easy to brush off the fabric. It sports an outdoorsy look, which is certainly in vogue in a city like Seattle; however, it may not be your first choice for urban adventures. The Eos is impressively versatile and our first pick in the fleet.

  Made in the U.S. and stuffed with 3.7 ounces of ethically sourced, 900+-fill goose down, the Eos proved ideal in a range of temperatures down to the high 30s with sometimes strong, cold winds, in which the jacket kept me completely warm over just a long-sleeve top

Down JacketFeathered Friends Eos Down Jacket$389, 11 oz. (men’s medium)Sizes: men’s S-XXL, women’s XS-XLfeatheredfriends.com From lunch stops at mountain passes buffeted by cold, autumn’s-around-the-corner winds in Glacier National Park in September, to mornings and evenings in temps in the thirties and forties on that six-day Glacier backpacking trip, another September backpacking trip in Yellowstone, and a four-day August trip in Idaho’s Sawtooth Mountains, the Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket persuaded me that it’s hands-down one of the very best puffy jackets on the market—and an incredible value at its price. I don’t offer such praise casually or very often

 While sewn-through baffles help reduce garment weight and are common in lightweight down jackets, they can create cold spots along seams where there’s essentially no insulation. But that was not a problem in the toasty Eos, even in temps in the upper 30s Fahrenheit. The elasticized hood isn’t adjustable—that would add weight—but has a supremely well-tailored fit that keeps cold air out and even stays put on your head when the jacket’s front zipper is opened halfway, which is remarkable.

Review: Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket - The Big Outside

 The downside of having a pocket here is that whenever you have something you know say you put your cell phone in this pocket, it's going to somewhat reduce the the level of warmth of the jacket I like to have the option. You know i, if it's really cold, I don't have to put anything in in that pocket. So that's something I wish that was added to the jacket, but other than that I feel like it's very well constructed. It'S very warm

 When I picked it up, I you know it just felt like you're, almost not picking up anything. It feels very airy and that's something I've really come to like, because it almost just feels like you're wearing a sweater, so you know something something like that. You would normally wear in your everyday life, not necessarily a coat to wear outside. So this is something that I've really found to be nice when I'm hiking with my daughter, I'm usually carrying a backpack with lots of other stuff and just to have a jacket

 At the moment, I weigh between 165 and 70 pounds and have a fairly athletic build, and I would say the large fits me just about right. The reason I've really been enjoying this jacket is that I was in the market for a puffer down jacket, and I wanted it to be both lightweight and warm and relatively versatile in terms of range of temperatures that this jacket would properly function at I've been wearing. This jacket anywhere between the high 20s to the mid 50s within that range of temperatures, this jacket has performed. Well, I can almost unzip it if it gets too hot witness in the you know the mid 50s and it vents really well

 It does exactly as advertised it keeps it's it's very lightweight and it keeps you warm in, like I said you know low or high 20s to mid 50s. So, once again, this is the u.s. jacket by feathered friends

Feathered Friends EOS Initial Impressions and Review

 I discovered this when I tried to guess the temperature after the sun had departed. With the Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket on me, I estimated it must’ve been about 50 degrees Fahrenheit. I checked my phone to get an exact temperature: 31 degrees! Yes, that’s how warm this jacket keeps you. Because of the elastic around the wrists and the drawcord adjustable waist, your body’s warmth is kept right where it’s needed

 These features and the reasonable price tag (in the context of down jackets) make the Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket our Classic Pick for the Ultralight Backpacker.   Feathered Friends Eos Star Rating    Comfort   Durability   Warmth   Packability    Summary The Feathered Friends Eos is a star-studded puffy with heaps of responsibly sourced down to keep you cold in freezing temps. The no-frills design focuses on comfort and warmth, so there’s only two zippered pockets, a single well-made front zipper, a full hood, and an elastic cinch at the waist. The jacket comes with a bright yellow stuff sack, which is easy to lose but doubles well as a pillow

 Final Word I ended up sleeping in the Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket that night and did so very comfortably. I discovered that the temperature dropped into the 20’s, but the Eos kicked that cold out like bouncer at a swanky nightclub. With this jacket comes a promise of warmth and ultralight comfort. Keep shopping small, folks! Where to Buy Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket We tested the Men’s Eos Down Jacket for this review

    Gear Review of the Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket Origins: Easing You In I should begin by admitting that I am a cheap son of a gun. I’d rather wear three layers of $10 long sleeve shirts than paying $35 for a jacket just to save five bucks. So to me, spending $289 for a jacket seems, well, blasphemous. That’s until I tried on the Eos Down Jacket

Switchback Travel | Feathered Friends Eos Down Jacket Review

Wirecutter

This vest kept us warm with its cozy features, including a soft lining and a long torso, which sealed in heat. This one also had the most pocket space of any of our picks.

Switchback Travel

Patagonia’s Down Sweater above is a great option for shoulder-season use, but those headed out in true winter temperatures will likely want a bump in warmth. Enter Outdoor Research’s aptly named Coldfront Down Vest, which packs in a whopping 5.3 ounces of 700-fill-power down (for reference, the Down Sweater boasts 2.4 oz.) that will keep you cozy on cold-weather adventures like snowshoeing, downhill skiing, and winter hiking. For added weather protection, OR also included a highly water-resistant Pertex Quantum shell and synthetic VerticalX ECO insulation at the shoulders for extra assurance in light rain or snow. At just $149, the Coldfront is an excellent value and a whole lot of vest for the price.

However, the Outdoor Research Coldfront falls short in one key area: versatility. In short, the Coldfront is one of the warmest and most substantial vests on the list and built to withstand cold temperatures, but it’s overkill for mild conditions and not as around-town friendly as picks like Patagonia’s Down Sweater or Better Sweater above. Alternatively, OR’s own Helium Down Vest weighs less at just 8.4 ounces, offers similar weather resistance, and has a much more streamlined and lower-profile (read: less bulky) look and feel. But for serious warmth at a reasonable price and weight, the Coldfront is an undeniably well-built and capable piece. Note: The Coldfront does run on the bigger side to allow room for layering underneath, so be sure to take that into account when deciding on size.See the Men's OR Coldfront Down Vest  See the Women's Coldfront Hooded Down Vest

The material on this vest was very flimsy and I was not impressed with the durability of the fabric. The vest sized smaller than large, and was too snug for a 200 pounder like me. REI was very good to accept the return.

Fit smaller than a large

 All of these factors help to keep the vest nice and light without breaking the bank. You get a zipper that's backed by a storm flap to increase the weather resistance at the chest, a brushed lined collar for your comfort, a zippered chest pocket with a smaller internal pocket, and two snap patch pockets which are also lined. I will say I am wearing a medium which is probably a little too small for me. It's really snug

r lineup, but the brand has shifted this particular piece into more of an aesthetic modern style vest with an outdoor attitude. This is great for those quick John's into town or onto the trail where it may be cold, but not cold enough to warrant a full-on parka. Throw it over your favorite flannel to spend a day outside with your friends or family. For the technical aspects, it's got a 20 denier polyester shell and liner and a 650 fill responsibly sourced down insulation

 I will say I am wearing a medium which is probably a little too small for me. It's really snug. It is built without the research standard fit, so there's supposed to be some room for layering under here again. I Normally would take a large overall

Outdoor Research Men's Transcendent Down Vest

 I still sort of like it but would have preferred whats in the pic. I suppose I’ll still keep it. Also, runs a little small. Need to drop 5 lbs to be cozy

Nice vest. High quality.

 So It has got a good, casual look and feel as well as an adventurous attitude,. really nice, you know, kind of dual purpose vest here with the Transcendent vest.. We Do have a down fill insulation of a 650 fill power, so it is a relatively light, compressible down insu-lation

.. you know, I am wearing a medium. So I Normally do wear medium and it is fit very nicely

 You know, a nice com-fortable fit. Like I Said, not to snug, but not very loose at all. Now This down is not treated, so if it gets wet, it is going to lose its insulation properties. So Keep that in mind

 They are really comfortable and cozy and the down insulation is ac-tually on the outside of the pocket so it provides some nice warmth for your hands if you are not wearing gloves.. And One of these pockets, I believe it is the right hand, is reversible, so you can pack this guy inside out onto itself and it will zip up nicely, create a nice pack size, maybe a small travel pillow. And There is a nice hang loop in there as well where you can hang it from a harness if you are climbing with it, so a nice additional bonus to the vest there

Outdoor Research Transcendent Vest

I never thought I would buy a vest, but I was goaded by my wife who has a big puffy. This one caught my eye because of its beefy fill power. When I took it out of the bag, my first thought was that it was actually meant as a really thin layering piece. Boy, was I wrong! After fluffing it for a few minutes and leaving it out overnight, the vest showed its true colours

Not a vest guy

 The chest pocket is zippered and has an inside mesh pocket for small items. Great design OR! Sizing is true. If you are looking for a down vest- check this one out!!!
