Uniqlo 20% off down

Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

No the XL was too small and I'm hoping that we get the XXL and XXXL for this winter.
If not I still have the old but heavier stuff but that is really too warm for OZ

Looks good. Cheers for chucking the link up. The other half is looking for a down jacket that is relatively long.

I'd grab one but I was lucky enough to get a Kathmandu down vest off of Gumtree for $25. 900 fill power. Fits really well.

I bought one a couple of years ago in NY and I love it as I don't feel the cold much it is a very good and very very compact down jacket for me. It is made from lightweight material though and would tear at the slightest scratchy twig you brush up against

You lost me. Did you mean that you don't feel the cold usually and the thin lightweight jacket was enough of a layer, or was the jacket is very warm and kept the cold away?

I think Marty doesn't really feel the cold and the LW was just enough insulation for him.

Thanks for the interpretation MD55! To put it in context, there's no mention of the environmental condition... Are we talking about NYC winter or spring/fall?

I know I need more than that in a NY winter, by at least a polarfleece and long underwear as well
