Very pricey, but it looks very nice. Super warm, too. Does anyone here have one? If so, what do you think? On par with Montbell’s PLASMA 1000 ALPINE DOWN PARKA? rab.equipment/us/zero-g-jacketRegards, DR

"ultra fine Pertex® 10d Quantum fabric"
I think i'll pass. I don't have a great history with fabric this thin. If there's something it'll snag on within a 50 mile radius, i'll find it. It also seems like such a thin fabric would cause trouble with feathers escaping.

It also seems like such a thin fabric would cause trouble with feathers escaping. I see, FS. My concerns are more with the cut. I would love to have a Feathered Friends Eos, but their sizing concerns me due to my chest size. I have a feeling their largest size will be much too tight or not fit in the chest area. The Montbell appears to be a better fit for me. I’ve been thinking this in black. www.montbell.us/products/disp.php?cat_id=25147&p_id=2301257&gen_cd=1Of course, I would try to get a sale price on it. Another Montbell model that appeals to be is this (again, in black) www.montbell.us/products/disp.php?cat_id=25146&p_id=2301237&gen_cd=1i noticed the Rab has a narrow fit, too. Probably going to be too tight. I will check it out, though. Respectfully, DR
