Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Jacket - Men's

 Brand : Mountain Hardwear
Item : MHW0016
The Mountain Hardwear Men's Sub Zero SL Hooded Jacket surrounds you with 650-fill down for the coldest possible conditions this winter. Mountain Hardwear's most popular down jacket, the Sub Zero SL is cloaked in Conduit SL—the company's proprietary water resistant, breathable fabric, allowing you to wear the Sub Zero SL skiing in drier climates and cruising around town while those fat flakes pile up. The seams in the baffles are not sewn-through, much like a high-quality sleeping bag. This means there is no true separation of the insulation at the seams, so you stay warmer and more comfortable, without the cold spots common in sewn-through down garments. The hood is detachable, and the fleece-lined collar and hand pockets keep you extra comfortable. An interior mesh water-bottle pocket is super handy for backcountry excursions, and of course, Mountain Hardwear's quality is legendary—there are few companies that match their excellence.

Product Reviews
Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Jacket - Men's



True Quality and Value
The MHW Hooded SL is a true alpine jacket and an understatement of quality, function and warmth. It is both waterproof and very breatheable. It kept me warm for 2 days at 12,000 ft, 5 degrees F and with a steady 20 mph wind. With layering, it has an easy comfort range of -25 to 20 degrees F. It is not a yuppie street jacket. The jacket is cut snug so if you are in the upper half of your size range, buy the next larger size, especially if you layer for cold temperatures.


What you pay for!
This is my first Mountain Hardwear product (I live in the UK, M.H. is not widely available!) and certainly won't be the last. This jacket is made exceptionally well, is very very warm and makes winter climbing in Scotland & the Lake District so much nicer, a class jacket.


mmmmmm Down!!!
This is my first down jacket and I love it!!! I have never owned anything by Mountain Hardware and this was a great first buy! This jacket has so much quality and is super warm (a little expensive, but worth it). I bought this jacket for a 10 day Winter trip in the White Mountains and it never let me down. At first I was worried about the 650 fill and it's just as warm as all the others. The Conduit SL waterproof system is wicked nice since down is so delicate to water. I threw this bad boy on at camp or on the side of the trail and I was roastin in no time!!! The hood definitely makes this jacket, you can feel the difference in warmth when you put it over your head. If you're wondering about size you should go one size up from your normal street wear. Definitely a great jacket and if your looking into down jackets this should be the one.


yay
Best down jacket ever. I own 3 other down jackets and this is the most comfy, durable and versatile, even in a warm country like australia, where it does get cold sometimes!


Mobile Sleeping Bag
This jacket is plush. Plenty of insulation with lots of loft. You may not want to take it off when you get home. I have yet to truly test its capabilities, but it's kept me very warm but not overheated from 20F-40F. It wasn't until I started doing some strenuous exercise (snow shovelling)in 35F temps that I started to overheat. The plastic cinching devices on the bottom of the jacket could be stronger. Unfortunately, a little movement will open up the bottom of the jacket requiring you to keep cinching it closed to keep out cold air. Also, be warned that this jacket is puffier than it looks in the pictures, although it's not quite at the George Constanza level. Overall an awesome jacket capable of serious backcountry outings.
