The Hydrenalite Down Hooded Parka trades a jacket's shorter cut for real length, with a 28-inch center back that covers the hips and thighs through long stretches outside. A two-way #5 VISLON zip opens from the bottom for venting or easier movement, on top of the same 600-fill recycled down insulation and WINDWALL-lined shell with a non-PFC DWR finish that hold in warmth and block wind and light snow. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"My kid stood on the sideline for a full soccer game in this and never asked to go sit in the car. The extra length kept the wind off their legs, and they could unzip from the bottom to sit down without the whole jacket riding up."
