Very solid down jacket at the cheapest I’ve seen (in black anyway). Perfect for a ski midlayer or a casual outer layer.
Sure you can get cheaper down jackets but they won’t last (gone through two Uniqlo ultralights myself), 800 fill ethical down and 100% recycled shell.

Hooded is actually cheaper at $211: https://www.surfstitch.com/patagonia-down-jacket-black1.html
