You dream of a puffy that can handle winter's wrath with dry warmth, and Outdoor Research made that dream come true with its Men's Floodlight Down Jacket. You stay nice and toasty in frigid temps with the 800+ fill down insulation, but this jacket also has Pertex Shield+ protecting you from stormy conditions and the wettest weather imaginable. Outdoor Research also welded the down's baffles to eliminate cold spots that conventional sewn-through constructions create, and Outdoor Research taped all the seams for maximum waterproof protection. The shell's fabric leaves the jacket with a lightweight appeal, incredible breathability, softness, and the freedom of movement you need to hike, ski tour, and climb comfortably in colder weather, and the ultra-compressible down means you can squish this jacket in to your pack for hot climbs up the skin track.
The Floodlight also features an adjustable hood with a wire brim that stays out of eyesight. Adjustable cuffs and hem keep the jacket in place while you walk, hike, pull, stretch, and play out on the mountains. Shove-It pockets offer a dry place to store climbing skins, goggles, water bottles, and other bulky items you need to keep warm. And the hand-warmer pockets are always available to toast up your numb digits even if you have a harness or backpack on.

Outdoor Research Floodlight Jacket Reviews:
Reviews:
I live in South Dakota and wanted a jacket to wear when my Absolute Zero was too much. I was after that zero (F) to +40 range. Waterproof would be nice as we get freezing rain too. The jacket is very thin, like an inch thick. I was wanting more bulk when I had ordered. I first wore Floodlight with a short sleeve shirt under it on a windy +30F day, and it wasn't enough. What I learned was this is a great jacket for layering. With a fleece sweater under it, it's warm down to nearly zero if there isn't a lot of wind. I haven't had a chance to test waterproofness, but it looks like it will be OK in freezing rain but maybe not a down pour. The zipper is pretty exposed. The hood is very nice, and the large pockets are outstanding. It's a slim cut and fits a bit tight. At first I was disappointed with it, but the more I wore it the more I came to appreciate it, especially with a warm base layer. It's lightweight and works for me. I give it four stars because in high wind at 22F degrees, it doesn't hold heat quite as well as I wanted. Excellent for layering, very well designed. I am an avid winter outdoorsman and experienced hunter. My winter hobby is taking photos during Dakota blizzards.

I have worn it for 8 plus hours in dumping wet snow 32 degrees and when it was barely getting out of th single digits and 10 to 15 mph winds. This puffy is water and wind proof, the only things most puffy s have going against them. My favorite use is hitting th e skin track with the floodlight on while it is storming. I last longer than I think I would before taking it off it breaths well and then I will have a very light water proof shell underneath never exposing my base layers to the storm. Up top I s brush as much moisture as I can off and put the floodlight back on keeping the storm out and the heat in. This coat is pretty perfect I have have my wife and sister in law use it and they were as highly impressed. A Norma puffy and nice shell would run me more so it ended up being a good value
I'm 6 tall and 160 lbs and the M size fit me very well . I know this jacket in March and it became my winter's choice immediately . It's 800 down insulated , soft , not ultralight , I don't like the ultralight down jacket at all , they are not warm . And the more important thing is it's water proof !
