Midway USA Alverstone Down Jacket and Vest

[fishslap]

I’ve had the Midway USA alverstone down jacket in green for several years now. Good warmth for the weight. I’ve used it fourth season backpack CO deer with other layers. I just picked up the vest (black) and wore it around today. Good product and on sale. I just thought I’d mention it for a good low cost piece of gear.

Do you think they run a full size small?
It says to size up

Definitely don’t size up. I’d say true to size. I’d call the fit/cut “normal” (not baggy but not slim). My jacket is a large and I wanted a more fitted fit for the vest and ordered a medium then had to return it for a large. I wear a large in most everything else. 5’10” about 185 ish

Really thinking about ordering one in tall.
Can never find stuff in tall

Free shipping and I think it was only $9 return shipping when I sent back the medium. Length is good. I actually wish my vest was just a bit shorter.

How loud if the material?

No more loud than the shell material of any other puffy I own. It is a softer shell material than the first lite cirrus and a little quieter but not by much. That’s the best reference I have. I’m wearing the vest right now, eating an elk burger.

Like most puffies, it has some swish but I don’t notice it during normal movement hiking.
