Box wall construction which means there’s down throughout and the down that’s inside is 800 fill power ethically sourced hydrophobic down which. Is quite a mouthful 800 fill power means it’s the highest quality down you can get so it’s super warm and highly compressible and the hydrophobic bit means that it’s been treated to make it. More resistant to damp so if it does get damp which is unlikely as its waterproof it will still retain some of its. Warmth took through some of the features at the bottom you have a draw cord hem. Which will help seal in your warmth and stop dress getting on the back of the jacket there are two deep hand warmers. Pockets here with water-resistant zips, and they’re raised slightly so if you’re wearing a harness or a rucksack belt you can still access the pockets the front.

Well hey everybody i just stopped for lunch so I’m gonna get some water on the. Boil and then we’re gonna talk about the black diamond hot forge jacket I’ve just. Got a bunch of small twigs I’m gonna put. In there and on my way in i collected a. Bunch of this cedar bark just gonna use about half of it there. Rough it up a little bit things like a. Jet engine. Already boiling in about four minutes with just that much wood just a couple. Chunks and you’re good. So whenever i wear a new coat in one of. My videos you guys always ask what code is that so today we’re gonna look at this one this is the black diamond hot forged jacket now i believe they make this jacket for 2016 in four different versions you can get it in a non hooded version like I’m wearing a hooded version you can also get it in a down blend or in all down i went for the down. Blend because it is lighter weight and more pack able now with a jacket that’s. This pack able something that i can shed as an actual layer i didn’t go with the hood i like to sometimes throw a jacket on over it if it’s really cold i can wear this jacket down to about maybe 20 25 degrees with something as small as just a t-shirt or in this case just a long-sleeve shirt underneath and I’m quite warm today the temperatures right around 30 degrees if it got any warmer i could just shed this layer off throw it in my pack very easily and continue on. Generally the coat that i would throw over this would have a hood so it doesn’t bother me not to have a hood in this style jacket the black diamond hot forged jacket comes at a bare minimum weight it only weighs 13 ounces and you. Get maximum insulation value it’s got a pertex quantum shell with a dwr coating I’ve worn this in the heavy wet snow. I’ve worn it in the rain and it does shed the water quite well and does dry. Relatively fast the jackets got to fleece lined pockets on the side very. Large for things like keys phone they do zip which is nice you can zipper in your. Contents to keep them from falling out when you’re hiking for example is this. Jacket also has a nice pocket here something that you could throw maybe a compass a snack bar in or your keys your phone something like that what i really like about that pocket up front is that. It rides below the sternum strap so when you’re wearing a backpack your sternum strap goes right about here and you could still access that pocket that’s a problem on some other jackets that I’ve tried where it’s up a little bit higher and the sternum strap gets in the way you have to unstrap and access the pocket that was another thing i really like about this jacket is that the collar area is a felt line so that when. You zip it up it doesn’t scratch your. Face or anything like that it’s very comfortable to wear even when you have it zipped all the way up it’s got very nice cuffs on it they are elastic, so they fit right down around your hands if you wear a glove you can simply just stretch that over the glove and you don’t get the gloves overlapping with the coat it’s very comfortable right down into the sleeves inside each pocket. There’s a little tab that you can pull and you can shorten the short cord with. This cord lock here and what that does is it basically just draws in the bottom. Of the coat i leave it wide open and i find that it’s got a great form-fitting shape without having to mess with it on. The inside on both sides you do have a large dump style pocket there for stashing more things and then you have a single ykk zip very easy to zip and it. Is seam sealing here so that it does come together when you zip up the jacket absolutely no wind gets through this coat and it maintains its warmth when it’s hugged right against your body the best feature of this coat is that it’s really lightweight and really small. But still packs a lot of warmth as you. Can see you can take it off and you can stuff this thing right down too almost. Nothing take up takes up no room in your pack if. You put it in a dry bag you can even get it a lot smaller but that’s great it’s. Ash edible layer that’s actually quiet. Warm and can actually be worn on its own now this jacket is a down blend so it. Has 70% goose down in it and then 30% primal opt fibers which gives you good. Durability it maintains its warmth when. Wet and it also gives you that super light capability of being able to pack it down and be very minimal and when. You’re wearing it this is a great jacket for hikers backpackers even camping or. Even people like me that just go out in the woods everyday on a day hike i can wear it even when the temperatures are very cold and don’t have to worry about getting it wet and i stay warm all day. With just a t-shirt on the inside now. Of course, you could layer up on the inside and take this coat even warmer again in the really cold i throw a jacket on over it works great for when your hammock camping you can take this off you can maybe wrap it around your head you can wrap it around your feet and give those areas where it’s needed a little bit extra warmth they also sent along one of their balaclavas this thing is awesome it’s very lightweight it’s made out of a very comfortable material i use something like this when i am at camp give my head and face a little bit extra warmth need it the balaclava can also be worn several ways including just like this as a neck gaiter so it’s very versatile with this stretchy material alright guys so hope you’ve enjoyed taking a look at the black diamond hat for jacket awesome jacket from black diamond I’m gonna leave a link below to their website where you can check out this jacket and other items that they.

I’m wearing the women’s patagonia stretch rain shadow jacket this is an. Extremely lightweight and stretchy. Breathable jacket that is completely. Waterproof and it’s perfect for those. Adventures where you need something lightweight that you can pull out of your pack and put on and know that it’s going to protect you from the elements the waterproof features of this as well. Make it very wind resistant so you’ve. Got a great lightweight shell here that’s got just enough features that makes it perfect for any adventure the. Material here is a two and a half layer. Stretch nylon h2no performance shall the. Fabric itself is waterproof but it’s. Also coated with a dwr finish this. Fabric is extremely breathable so that dwr finish on the outside helps the. Water to bead up runoff it doesn’t get. Saturated into the fabric at all and that helps it keeps its breathable properties so you don’t get the water building up so you kind of hold in your. Heat and your water vapor it definitely. Is breathable that way and the incredible stretch of this jacket really. Makes it versatile for all different activities it’s not going to slow you. Down and even the look of the fabric. It’s not super shiny like some other rain jackets so you can get away with wearing it when it’s not raining you don’t feel like you’re wearing that slick shiny shell the features here are. Simple so they keep it lightweight down at the bottom hem you do have a stretchy draw cord that goes around the whole hem. Of the jacket so you can cinch it in here down on the bottom you do have a. Watertight zipper both on the full. Length zipper of the jacket but also on the pockets on the chest pocket and the pockets on this side so you’re gonna be protected that way two hand level pockets these are perfect for hand. Warmer pockets they’re gonna keep your hands nice and protected, but they’re set up high enough here that if you’re wearing a harness or if you’re wearing a backpack with a hip belt you can still access those pockets and then you have that chest pocket up here for smaller items you do have underarm zips here and. They’re really easy to access so and. They’re really big zippers so you can really just dump all of that excess heat out of the underarm zip there and that’s. Going to keep you nice and cool inside the jacket and then moving up to the. Hood you have a nice collar here up at the top so you can really protect your face if you need to and it is a helmet. Compatible hood so the hood is certainly. Big enough you could wear a climbing helmet underneath of there or even a bike helmet if you’re wearing it that way but you do have some adjust ability. In the back so you can make the volume. Of that hood be a lot smaller so if you’re not wearing a helmet if you’re hiking or backpacking you can cinch that down and you have a stiffened brim here. On the front and that just keeps the rain from getting onto your face the fit. Here is really nice right now I’m wearing a small and it fits me really well I’m just wearing a lightweight. T-shirt and kind of base layer underneath of it and i feel like i have plenty of room to move if i was wearing. Some insulated pieces underneath of this. I might want to size up to a medium but as far as the stretch here as far as the. Fit I’ve definitely got some room this jacket isn’t going to weigh you down it’s extremely lightweight it’s breathable again so it’s gonna dump out. All of that excess heat and it packs down to be nice and small so you can pack it away when you don’t need it’s. The women’s patagonia stretch rain shadow. Jacket. You.

Chest pocket which is really nice for climbers being able to carry on route it’s got a clip off loop then we place. The two hand pockets really high to stay clear of a harness or a waist belt from. The backpack the hood is helmet compatible to work with your climbing helmet and again the whole thing men’s medium weighs about 272 grams the. Stretch rain shadow jacket is available in spring 16 it’ll retail for 250 euros. Again we built it to be a really versatile piece ideal for rock climbers backpackers and lightweight trekkers. You.

Built for high alpine climbs or cold-weather adventures the patagonia men’s stretch nano storm jacket features. A lightweight full range insulation and. A waterproof breathable h2 no shell and. A lot of stretch for freedom of movement in the mountains let’s take a closer. Look at its features this jacket is constructed with a 30 d nylon shell. Material it is 100% nylon stretch nylon. At that and it does have a waterproof breathable barrier it is patagonia’s. H2no technology so it is fully. Waterproof very breathable it’s gonna keep you nice and dry while your outdoors the insulation is patagonia’s. Innovative full range insulation it’s the same insulation found in their revolutionary nano air jackets it’s a. Super stretchy insulation it’s extremely breathable and warm it’s designed so. That you can put it on in the morning and essentially leave it on all day that’s how well that insulation breathes so it’s a really nice blend of materials in the jacket it weighs in. Around 20 and a half ounces so it is fairly lightweight for a waterproof. Insulated she’ll consider that it’ll vary. By size so that weight is gonna vary by size again just something to consider with the piece this jacket is very. Feature-rich it’s got a lot of things going on a lot of things to talk about first thing up at the top of the chest. We’ve got two waterproof zip pockets so. Really easy access pockets at the top are great for storage of smaller items. Whether that needs to be chap sticks or any emergency supplies you can easily store those there and again those are waterproof pockets, so they’re well protected down at the hand level. Sitting a little bit higher, so they are pack compatible you’ve got two zippered hand warmer pockets pretty large pockets. Have a light fleece lining on them so you can easily store some items in those. Pockets as well, and they do have the flap over the top to protect from any moisture so definitely some smart pocket. Designs they’re got full length center. Front zip on the piece so it’s a really easy to use center front zipper and it does have a storm. Flap on the inside of this jacket there. Are two drop-in pockets on either side whether you need extra skins layers for. Your gloves or any other additional items you’ve got drop-in pockets on the jacket just for that and some as we know. Waterproof breathable garments sometimes can’t breathe enough for the energy output so you need some extra of venting the nano storm jacket does have pit zips. So under each arm there are integrated. Pit zips to allow you to open that up dump some of that excess heat in the event that the jacket isn’t quite breathing fast enough for you so a really smart included feature with those. Pit zips this jacket is hooded it does have an. Alpine helmet compatible hood with multiple adjustments so a really sizable. Kind of oversized hood on the piece you’ve got adjustment on the front and the back so right on the front you’ve got kind of draw cords that will allow you to cinch down that hood and you’ve got embedded have mechanisms to loosen. That if you need to that will help you cinch down the whole hood here we do have a shaped brim to add some structure and to deflect some of that moisture and on the back there is another adjustment. Point to pull in the outsides of the hood to give you some extra peripheral vision so a lot of adjustment on that hood it’s a really smart design we do. Have some extra adjustment on the cuffs and hem of the jacket so around the. Wrists there is a hook and loop closure that’s going to allow you to secure that if you have to secure it over gloves or if the gloves are going over the jacket you can easily manipulate that and work. That fabric as needed the hem of the jacket does have a draw cord there are two cords on the outside and those embedded mechanisms so you can easily cinch that down to get a nice snug fit down load to keep any drafts. From coming up underneath the jacket the fit is a pretty regular fit I’m wearing. A medium here and it does fit pretty adequately i don’t have a lot of. Room for layers underneath but as it is an insulated piece it is fairly warm already so just something to consider with the sizing the design of it is really smart you’ve. Got an articulated design a seamless shoulder pattern so the added. Stretch and that seamless design makes it really easy to move around in this jacket i don’t feel restricted at all which is really nice with this piece so. For a really warm waterproof piece for. Those high alpine adventures with a lot. Of innovative technologies and coming in at a very lightweight it’s the patagonia men’s stretch nano storm jacket. You.
