"Good but not as lofty as my Taiga Downlite. I was going to return but the lack of loft fits better under my shell (Sitka Jetstream) so the Taiga compresses to the same density under a shell. FYI, the Ptarmagan is Large and the shell is XL. The image shows the Taiga on the left and Skre on the right."
"This jacket is literally the best jacket ever. I ordered it in the ash brown color to wear while glassing and out and about during winter. And this jacket beat all my expectations by a long shot. Super warm, nice fit, and best of all wind resistant. I wore it in 30+ mph wind gusts and didn’t even feel the wind. Would highly recommend!"
"Received item damaged. Complete return damaged item for exchange. Received email stating return is under review over 48 hours ago and no further response from skre. Have attempted to contact Skre customer service and phone just rings and review voicemail that they are busy with other customers. I question if they even have anyone answering the customer service phone line."
"I like the jacket very much and it does seem to be quite warm. The sizing and the quality of the manufacture are high quality. I have another 850 down jacket which has a better loft but inferior zippers and no hood. I was anticipating an inside zip pocket but the outside pocket is better for accessibility but possibly less for security. All in all it is an excellent jacket. I read a suggestion that it could be layered with a hardscrabble but Im not sure that this would work with 2 "large" size jackets."
"warm and comfy, tight fit so check sizing chart first. got 1 for me and 1 for the wife and like it. if you're looking for a down jacket, that's the one i'd recommend."
"I have purchased 2 of these now, 1 for me and 1 for my wife. We both. love them, Great fit. We allow for 1 size up. to allow for extra layers."
"Nice well made jacket. I really haven’t worn it in any lower temperatures cause of the time of year I bought it but it seems like just what I need."
"Comfortable fitting jacket - perfect weight for the spring. I decided to chose the olive colour and love it!"
"I’ve guided in this jacket all spring. Love everything about it. Very warm and lightweight."
"I have been using the jacket and pants for a couple years now. I started wearing the jacket every day to test the durability and quality. There is a little feather loss but not much to be concerned with. It works great as a layering system. The pack ability is outstanding. The only thing that could be improved is that there is no attachment points for using this with other layers such as the hard scrabble jacket. I would recommend this product to anyone."
