Why We Like The Helium Down Hooded Jacket

We believe it always helps to have a little extra protection before heading into the wilds. That's why we really appreciate that Outdoor Research gave the Helium Down Hooded Jacket an exceptionally abrasion-resistant shell, as well as waterproof shoulders and a waterproof hood. And with the combination of the lightweight Diamond Fuse Technology and highly packable high-fill down, this jacket ensures you'll be bringing it along on every mountain adventure you can.

Great all activity coat

I'm 5'5", 130lbs with broad shoulders and this fits me well! I cant quite fit a hoodie under it, but longs sleeves no problem. I like that the pockets are lined too. The yellow does show dirt quickly.

Despite other reviews, the jacket was very form fitting and not boxy, so it did not fit correctly. The jacket is warm, lightweight, and in an attractive color.

Awesome for cool morning activities in the PNW. Liwer rating only because it was not as packable as listed. Bulky in the pack as the day warms up.

Disappointing fit

Unfortunately the fit of this coat is poor. The length of the coat is just preference for my wife, but the arms are obscenely long for a medium coat. The sleeves come to the end of her fingers without being stretched. We will likely just end up giving this away and finding something else.

Pocket lining is a dealbreaker

Overall I liked this jacket. It seems like it'd be warm especially with layers underneath for northern Michigan winters. However, the brushed lining "tricot" material was a dealbreaker for me. It's like fiberglass cuts on dry winter hands.

This light as a feather 800 fill jacket is so versatile, especially with the hood. Packs down for travel. Super warm. Love this jacket!

Durable and comfortable

This jacket is light enough to be worn under another jacket yet rugged enough to be worn alone. The insulation is awesome, very warm outside yet light enough to wear daily. Great purchase

Like my helium hoodie but am in between sizes

I bought this last year. Apparently I'm in between sizes having ordered a S which was huge, and then an XS which was snug. I regret keeping the XS as I can't layer underneath it when it's below freezing. The chest pocket is too small for a phone. And the waist pockets fit a phone but the jacket is tight so with a phone and keys in the waist pockets, it becomes uncomfortable as well as unflattering. I do love the warmth and the color kalamata.

I love the color, but....

Really warm and well made! I also love the moonstone color! Edit after a few years of wearing the jacket: while I love the color, significant discoloration occurs under the arm pits when sweating to the point of not wanting to wear the jacket. Washing the jacket doesn't solve issue. Purely seems to be the quality of the outer lining
