Filled with 600 loft Responsible Down Standard (RDS) duck down and featuring elasticated cuffs and an adjustable hood and hem, this jacket works to keep you warm by trapping heat against your body. A durable nylon shell protects against general wear and tear, while the internal draft tube and soft chin guard aids insulation and overall comfort.

              A lot goes on behind the “front line” at a hospital. You are fortunate enough to not have need/have already gained full comprehension of that.

    Mine was stolen after TSA inspected my bag at JFK on my recent return to Australia. Mightily pissed off. They're now of course ignoring my emails asking for reimbursement of same.

      Why would they offer you a reimbursement?

    • iSamurai on 02/04/2020 - 22:24

      could it have been the baggage handler and would travel insurance cover that (do you need a police report to prove that it's stolen)?

    • Flowerbomb on 03/04/2020 - 02:19

      Has this happened to you on multiple occasions? Do you find the TSA in America very dodgy and have a tendency to steal stuff from checked in luggage?

        On my last US trip I think I finished up with 4 separate cards telling me TSA had opened my bag… don't think they fleeced anything. I still wonder what it was that they were so interested in - probably the 1kg bag of Redskins….

  • dm01 on 02/04/2020 - 18:30

    I love my hooded Halo. Love it so much I bought a spare.

  • AussieDaddy on 02/04/2020 - 18:33

    • HA on 02/04/2020 - 18:40

      They run slightly large in my experience.

    • dm01 on 02/04/2020 - 19:05

      At least a size large. And the arms are longer than you would think necessary. My Halo is a small, I wear a medium to large in other brands.

      • try2bhelpful on 02/04/2020 - 19:07

        I like the longer arms. If it’s cold you push them over your hands, and also helps for covering hands holding up umbrellas.

        • SonOfATightASS on 02/04/2020 - 19:45

          Just checked mine. I bought large, I'm usually extra large. My hands can be covered by the sleeves without much effort. I'd strongly suggest buying down a size.

          • AussieDaddy on 02/04/2020 - 20:37

            @SonOfATightASS: So do you think these sizes are accurate for this jacket, or if I usually wear a large jacket I should go down to medium? Tia

            • SonOfATightASS on 02/04/2020 - 20:57

              @AussieDaddy: If you usually wear large definitely go to medium and you will still feel like it's not small on you.
              I bought this jacket under the same guidance from other Ozbargainers and their advice was spot on.

              • AussieDaddy on 02/04/2020 - 21:25

                @SonOfATightASS: Thanks. I am just little bit worried about the sleeve length and the waist size if I go down to a medium. I still have some weight to lose in my waistline and have disproportionately longer arms. I would have tried one on but it's showing that no local store has stock. I might just go ahead and get the medium. If push comes to shove I'll return it for an exchange (if they're still in stock then, or for a refund) and get PayPal to pay for the return shipping cost.

      • AussieDaddy on 02/04/2020 - 19:20

        Cheers

        • dm01 on 02/04/2020 - 21:04

      • tho760 on 02/04/2020 - 21:49

        Agree with other comments, that is you usually wear medium get small.

      • Hamlet on 02/04/2020 - 23:14

        In the pictures, it's evident that the sleeves are longer than the model's arms — just look at the elbow folds. It's not a bad thing for a winter jacket (especially when there's a sleeve tightening cuff); just means you can cover your hands too if needed!

      Less over-priced. Other then that this is probably better on all fronts, or at least the same.

        Thanks for your fashion advice. I felt so too. Sometimes the colour combo can cut a torso and look odd though.

      • robotfrom1984 on 02/04/2020 - 21:03

        I'm usually a small in jackets. I found the small to be too short in the arms and tighter around the shoulders so I went for the medium instead. Definitely a better choice and it means I can layer underneath if need be.

        • henno on 08/04/2020 - 11:03

          Well, this arrived today and I went a whole size smaller anyway and it is still a bloody parachute. And the arm length is super long, even for my lanky 5'10" gf.

  • fd9 on 02/04/2020 - 22:15

    I am a bit confused regarding what people mean when they say a size down.

    I measured myself with a tape and according to the sizing guide on the MacPac site I am medium.

    Does that mean I should order a small?

    Is that what people mean by a size down?

    Or do they mean if I am a medium with another brand I should order a small for this jacket?

    Thank you!

      Or do they mean if I am a medium with another brand I should order a small for this jacket?

      yeah, most people find that it's better to order one size smaller than your usual size, in your case a small.

      • fd9 on 02/04/2020 - 22:29

        Okay awesome. Thanks for the info and for saving me from a poor fitting purchase!

        That's so confusing that they would put out a sizing chart on their products which we shouldn't follow.

        • pHyR3 on 02/04/2020 - 22:45
          +1

          i think it's more for people that are accustomed to a 'standard sizing'

          for example, when i buy clothes I often buy a Large, but sometimes a Medium for a snugger fit. So I'll size down for this jacket and make sure I buy a Medium

          • fd9 on 02/04/2020 - 22:53

            @pHyR3: Oh okay. Thanks for the info.

            Just so I understand you correctly - if I used the macpac sizing guide on the website next to the jacket and it gives me a medium (99cm chest MEDIUM, 105 cm hip LARGE, 92 waste LARGE) -> What would be the best option -> By that I would by a medium?

            I have a Colombia jacket that I wear Medium > By that I would buy a small?

            • pippohippo on 03/04/2020 - 00:42

              @fd9: I'm generally a medium for a comfortable fit, and a small for snug fit to expose my WFH beer gut :( . But with this jacket (non hooded) i can wear a tshirt, a fleece, a beer gut and still fit a small. So i got the small hooded version this time

              • fd9 on 03/04/2020 - 00:46

                @pippohippo: Thanks for the info pippo :) I'll grab the small!

                Tell me about it - so hard to stop procrastieating from home.

              • AussieDaddy on 03/04/2020 - 01:14

                @pippohippo: Mind to share your height & weight? I am 6ft tall and weigh 85kg (with a belly, unfortunately lol) so I am thinking to get a medium, not sure if that will fit me.

                • pippohippo on 03/04/2020 - 08:47

                  @AussieDaddy: 5ft 8, i do not dare to weigh myself now. I was around 75kg 2 years ago lol. But it still fits!

        Despite a puffer jacket being not the most fashionable item ( words from misus), the hood is terribly ugly. it also dangle unused most of the time. Why !? They usually are not in place/design correctly to avoid the rain in your face as other jackets.
