Rock and ice down parka
I have used the rock and ice parka in the cold Chicago winter. I can say this is the warmest jacket I have ever worn. That includes a sheepskin jacket that is also very warm and wind proof, but also very heavy in weight. My only comment would be that the rock and ice parka should be used only in temperatures below freezing because it is too warm for cool weather. One could be sweating and unzipping the jacket. Again, this is a very warm and wind protected parka, but it is not cheap but if you like cold outdoors , this is the only jacket you need.

Love it
I have a hard time keeping body heat. I feel really sick when I am exposed to the cold for longer periods of time. Super great if you need to stay toasty warm. It is bulky. Wish I had this earlier at the start of winter

The Highest Quality you can get like Arc'teryx and TNF
I didn't believe this parka was real before I got it. It's better than I could have imagined. I wish I had know about this brand years ago, I would have saved thousand of dollars on down jackets and coats. Living in Milwaukee, WI, this parka will be used every year from now on; And I WILL BE TOTALLY WARM! I'm going to buy the down pants next. Build to last as long as the other brands and just as great!! Down Fill Power is crazy great. Bang!

Quality.
I haven’t had a chance to use the parka and down pants yet because it hasn’t been cold enough. That said, as someone that grew up in the frozen North, I have become something of a connoisseur of winter apparel. This is the real deal. It is lighter than my Snow Mantra, and the fit and finish is better than newer items from Canada Goose. When I try them on, there is much greater manoeuvrability with the Feathered Friends than my Canada Goose or. Obis and it is far superior to Columbia, Patagonia and The Northface. I can’t wait for some real weather!
