Of course not – any fule nose that the measure of a down jacket is how expensive the logo looks!
This. Remember, for pub beer garden attire this time of year the discerning STW’er shouldn’t get out of his A4 Avant S-Line in anything less than some little known but reassuringly expensive Scandinavian boutique brands. Flårnyaårven, Jürnenføfflj, Guünnhjhærgnör…etc.
Anything below £700 is frankly embarrassing.
Do any of you have a Quechua Down Jacket and would you recommend it?
My wife has some of that stuff and it seems fine. Cotswold house brand. A few people I spoke to who really put it to use rated it higher than some of the fancier brands.
Brain fart. I was thinking of Ayacuucho.
