Thanks. Yeah, I think puffy jacket is definitely an area where people can save some money if they want to. I saw some really nice looking ones at Sam's club awhile back I would have got one if I didn't already have this jacket. I'm careful with this jacket. I had to walk through a briar patch with it on and that was sketchy haha.

Thanks for stopping by. The puffy is a great piece of gear to have.

Thanks, it'll pick back up more consistently here in spring.

$30 bucks is a great deal for a puffy jacket. Is that a synthetic? I've been looking for a synthetic lately and I was actually thinking about getting an Amazon basics heavier one for around $50 for winter time.

Thank you. I have heard good things about arc'teryx. Wouldn't mind having some gear from them.

I am going to try more Arc’teryx gear. I tend to always go back to The North Face though.

Oh wow you've got quite the collection there haha. Yeah if you layer it up right it can be a good piece for winter, 10°is pretty low. Virginia it looks like stays semi- mild in the winter from the times I have checked the weather. I have the triple crown hike on my list to hit at some point.

@@HikeIntoTheSunset I do. I did a lot of "retail therapy" after I got divorced. Jackets, and gear(mainly Mountain Hardwear gear) was what I was into at the time, so I bought A LOT of it. I had so much stuff coming, I didn't even know what was in the box being delivered. It was like Christmas every other day! Lol Yea, it's not too cold here in Virginia. I just moved here from the mountains of North Carolina. It was actually colder there due to altitude(-2° was the coldest it got while I lived there) I kind of wish I had moved further North. Minnesota, North/South Dakota, Colorado etc. The colder, the better. I'm weird, I know. Anyway, great video. Thank you for taking the time to make it. I enjoy learning about what I have, and seeing how other people use it. I look forward to seeing new reviews in the future. Have a good one! 😊

I've definitely been there on the ordering sprees lol. I was planning on heading down to the NC, Tennessee boarder in the smokies around Thanksgiving but the wind chills were around zero and I just wasn't ready for all that.

@@HikeIntoTheSunsetYea, wind is a game changer for sure. I'm sure you'll love it when you do make it. It's a beautiful place. There is great hiking all over around here. Thanks for the response, and have a good one! 😊

That is a great deal. This jacket has held up great for me, still using it.

Exactly, they are more than worth their weight and always there when you need it.

@@HikeIntoTheSunset they really are. I always make sure my rain shell can fit over them before I commit to new rain gear to.. just in case. Good review man.. this MH one is appealing because of the hood and quality. I may have to get one

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think they offer this jacket in a synthetic version. I love a good deal on expensive gear haha. I usually always wait for a deal if I think I can get one. And a puffy jacket is always a great insurance policy to take with you, let's you have that peace of mind if temps drop. I forgot to mention it but I wanted to let people know I saw a down jacket at Sam's club for like 50 that looked pretty nice, could be a good option for people starting out.

@@HikeIntoTheSunset I got a puffy from Costco a few years ago for $20. Love it.

I know, interesting name haha.

Hmm I can't recall if it did or not. I don't think it was anything major though haha

The DWR smells for a bit once you wear for a few weeks it will dissipate

I think it was the bag, it didn't take long for the smell to leave the jacket once I took it out of the bag and let it breathe. All I gotta say is that smell was horrid.
