Comments on: Four Classic Down Parkas for Men Reviewed https://kinsta.altitude-sports.com/en/best-down-parkas-men/ Outdoor Gear Guides, Stories & Reviews Wed, 23 Aug 2023 13:21:13 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.8.9 By: Yan https://kinsta.altitude-sports.com/en/best-down-parkas-men/#comment-1167 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 03:31:01 +0000 https://altitude-blog.com/?p=3843#comment-1167 Hello! Hesitating between Expedition – Resolute – Snow Mantra for snowmobiling in Ontario and Québec… I know the Snow Mantra is the absolute warm but is there a big difference between the 2 others?

Also, I’m 5’9″ and 135 lbs (yeah I know I’m skinny), which size should I buy?

Thanks in advance!

Yan

Hey Alex, both are extremely warm jackets, but I would say the Expedition is the warmer of the two, to answer your question. That being said I presume both will be fine for the NYC-Boston climate.

If you are after the Expedition Parka Altitude-sports.com ships free to the United States. See the Expedition here: https://www.altitude-sports.com/en/men-s-expedition-parka

Is there a big difference btw the two when it comes to warmth? Thanks!

Good question. The North Face does not indicate how much quantity of down they put in their jackets, just the quality (the McMurdo being 550 loft).

I can honestly say that the McMurdo is extremely warm and you should not fear for the warmth of this model. They have stuffed it full of down!

Robson, if you are referring to construction (ie: down quality, fabrics, etc), then yes they are identical. Besides the cut and length, as you pointed out, they are no tangible differences. In fact, we sell a lot of men’s models to women, and vice versa because of this very reason.

All i know is the cut and length are different.

Honestly, the original “review” told me nothing of value. Eli saved the day by explaining the differences between the Ontario and Expedition. How they compare in the real world to TNF offerings will have to be found elsewhere.

You should get a small. I’m 5’9 and 170 lbs and the small fits well. I can even fit a
Hoodie under an zip it.
