I’m fairly well covered with warm outer layers
– 2 down jackets
– 3 down vests
– 4 primaloft jackets
– 2 primaloft vests
– 1 primaloft set of arms…!
Nearly all of them are of the lightweight style of jacket, rather than heavy duty winter use
The primaloft ones are definitely more use than the down ones as I’m generally not in places that are cold enough to warrant a down jacket, plus I find them too warm.
The real question here is what do you want it for? Is it winter pub wear, or are you using it in the outdoors. If so, is it for camp wear or when you stop for a break at the top of a hill. If you care about getting it wet then primaloft or other synthetic insulation is the way forward, otherwise down packs down better and will last longer
