Hunker down wrapped in light, fluffy goose down.

The Mountain Hardwear Men's Hunker Down Jacket provides the warmth for a dry winter's day but but is always ready to play nicely with a shell when the weather turns south. The lightweight but highly effective goose down goes to work insulating your core, giving you the confidence to tackle that slope or traverse the stormy glacier.


Mountain Gear

The Hunker Down Jacket from Mountain Hardwear is built to be lived in, with a balance of abrasion-resistance and weight savings to keep you warm when the winter starts to crank. You can comfortably wear the Hunker D as an outer layer because the durable 50-denier body fabric isn't your average ultra-light ripstop. 650-fill goose down insulation keeps you toasty warm while dual hem drawcords and adjustable cuffs seal in the heat.

great jacket

This jacket is like that piece in your closet that wants to be your go to winter coat, but isn't quite there yet. Let's do a quick run down of what I felt were the ups, and the downs, of the new Hunker Down Jacket.To start I loved the fit. At 5'9, and 140lbs, I am not the biggest guy but I have longer arms and find while most smalls fit in the body sleeves are short. This was not the case with the Hunker Down. The sleeves extended just slightly past my wrist, and the adjustable cuffs kept them from sliding up and down during use. In addition to this the feel of the coat was nice, sitting right at my belt line, and close to the body, but in a non restrictive manner.

Great quality jacket!

Jacket is awesome quality and very warm, as to be expected with a down jacket. I picked this jacket over the NF jackets for one main reason...ATTENTION TO DETAIL! At this price point I could not find a NF jacket that even came close. The velcro cuffs for sinching down to avoid drafts and micro-fleece lining around the collar were huge comfort issues for me. NF jackets only had the elastic cuffs, which will loosen over time and no liner in the collar. The exterior chest pocket is one of my favorites as well, so I'm partial to MH.

Very warm jacket

The jacket is very warm and soft. I use it on hikes in the cold weather and then as a pillow in my sleeping bag. Great jacket and is great to wear around town. I like this jacket better than most puffy style jacket because the outside material seems to be tougher than the other brands. I feel like I am going to rip the other jackets because the material is almost too soft.

Great jacket

he Mountain Hardwear Men’s Nitrous Down Jacket provides the lightweight insulation of 800-fill down in a low-bulk package suited for nearly any day in the hills. You can wear the Nitrous Down Jacket over your shell to stay warm on a rest break, or use it as a mid layer in seriously cold conditions. Plus, this Mountain Hardwear jacket makes a really nice change from your hoody when you head downtown in the snow.

so pleased with this jacekt. I have a sweater weight down and wanted something a little heavier for this winter since it was so cold. Was amazed at how light it was! About as light as my 1st generation Patagonia Down Sweater I have had for years but markedly warmer. Highly recommended if you are searching for a great, winter down jacket.

Great down jacket

I always hesitate to choose Mountain hardwear hunker down jacket or the north face nuptse2 down jacket,I'm glad I chose the Hunker,I was a thin man,5'11 150lbs,I chose the medium,Length right,But a little loose.If I choose to small, length should be short,Is a very worth buying down jacket.

Warm, but too short

Being new to Northeast winters I knew I needed to get a warm everyday jacket and wanted to stick with MH as they have always done right in my eyes. I received this jacket and took it outside in December and wasn't very comfortable as far as warmth goes. My problem is that the jacket is too short, barely making it past my belt. So anytime I bend over or reach for something I get a shot of cold air on my lower back. I am 6'2" and ordered a large, so it could just be that it is the wrong jacket for my body type. Guess that is one of the downfalls of ordering online. Bottom line, I will be returning this jacket as I found a Marmot jacket that is a better fit.

Not best quality

I bought this jacket because of the red color and the inexpensive price tag. As soon as I unpacket the jakcet I sort of felt that it wasn't high quality. The stitches are not nice and the shoulder/arm/neck fabric has a very coarse feel to it. The jacket is not as warm as I was hoping for: I have a fibre insulated jacket - and I thought this jacket was a major step up insulation wise. It is not. I have now been wearing the jacket for approx 3 months and recently one of the INSIDE seams in the left arm has ruptured (approx 1 inch) and so I had downs everywhere when I took the jacket off.
