Here is my Thrudark Recoil Jacket. This is a backpacking specific winter down jacket with a big difference! The Thru Dark Recoil Jacket is designed to be worn whilst carrying a rucksack or backpack. The rear of the down jacket uses a thin 4-way stretch panel to aid ventilation and moisture escape. It's a great, well thought out piece of hiking gear which makes a superb hiking jacket for hitting the hills in colder conditions.
This is what they say:
An insulated down jacket optimised for backpack carriage. A rip stop and water resistant Pertex® Quantum outer shell encases 750 fill power goose down focusing insulation around the body’s core - targeting the chest and arms specifically. An innovative, four way stretch fabric back panel enhances ventilation and prevents overheating when carrying a backpack.
When carrying heavy load through the bitter cold, the Recoil will ease your burden.
