Stuff the Lafuma Hako Down Jacket into your pack for backup warmth during your backcountry hut trip. Baffle construction keeps the 550-fill duck down insulation in place, so you won’t wind up with cold spots. The Hako Jacket’s coated polyester shell breathes while you ski the last mile to the yurt after sundown, and it resists water, so precip won’t soak you. Lafuma designed this jacket with a stormflap to seal out wind and help prevent heat loss.

not bad... for the price

Rating:****

I paid $40 for this jacket on SAC and it is worth that price. Over all this is not as nice as some down jackets and the 550 fill is heavier and does not compress too much. Still the jacket is quality in its materials and construction. It is also very warm. The sizing was right about what I expected. I have not had it in the rain yet but I did dump a glass of water on the jacket and the water beaded up and rolled right off. I have a waterproof shell anyways so not that important.

Negative Reviews:

You can Do Better than This

Rating:**

The jacket is heavy which of course it would be with its down rating of 550. The description said it would repel water and was water resistant. I was out in a light drizzle for 10 min. and supposed I would have some leakage at the seams but noticed the material was becoming soaked. The handwarmer pocket develeoped a hole in it on the first use and the only thing put in that pocket was a soft glove. Truly an item that starts breaking down as soon as you buy it!!

Another Input

Rating:**

After wearing the jacket once I noticed a hole in the right pocket on the seam. The only thing put in the pocket was one soft glove. This does not bode well for the quality of workmanship ( that is lacking ) or their quality assurance. How will this jacket hold up?? With it starting to fall apart after one mild use I leave that deduction to the reader. BC would be wisely advised to NOT carry Lafuma clothing and stick only with Lafuma shoes ( if they are made well)!

Lafuma -on Dry days that aren't trash day

Rating:**

The description states it is water resistant so precip won't soak you. I was out when it mildly started to sprinkle, after 10 minutes the MATERIAL was soaked. One would have expected it to only soak thru at the seams. It got as wet as a non treated piece of nylon/cotton. The black looks just like a shinny trash bag. Quite cheap looking. There are other things that are better to buy with the same capability or better for a cheaper price.
