Simas

It is said here in BPL forum that men's PEAK XV had 13oz of down (2010 production) http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=40893 And they change the retail price from $269 to $399, so that's pretty big increase, but decrease in down... Not so good...

Thanks. What temperatures do you find it useful when camping?

Hey guys, I've been reading a lot lately on the Eddie Bauer Peak XV parka, and noticed this thread. I suspect that some of you have different models of this jacket so it would be very interesting to hear your opinion. I've found this review on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/review/R39IS4CDDYDQ1X/ref=cm_cr_dp_title?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B0049C8YL2&channel=detail-glance&nodeID=1036592&store=apparel, which essentialy is saying that the new model of the jacket has less down than the first one. I started to look for the truth. Current jacket has: Size Small - 10.08 ounces Size Medium - 10.5 ounces Size Large - 11.07 ounces Size X-Large - 11.7 ounces Do you think it is true that they cut on the down during the model change? Because I find it confusing about people saying that this jacket is very warm, but there's not so much down in it having 10.5oz for medium Simas
