## Description

BLIZZARD AEROLITE PARKA The warmest GORE-TEX big game gear, this waterproof insulated jacket is built for late season hunts that have you sitting on exposed glassing points or riding into howling wind and snow. Synthetic PrimaLoft Gold Insulation with Cross Core technology replicates the performance of down insulation, but with warm-when-wet performance. It maximizes warmth while minimizing bulk for increased mobility. FEATURES: - Total weight: 45.5 oz. - GORE-TEX waterproof/breathable fabric helps you stay comfortable and focused - GORE-TEX 2-layer fabric with highly durable polyester face - Synthetic PrimaLoft Gold Insulation with Cross CoreTM technology - Lightweight high-loft insulation - Fully adjustable, drop-away hood - Water-sealing cuffs - Zippered chest pocket - Fleece-lined handwarmer pockets keep your fingers warm WHY WE MADE THIS Nothing saps your concentration as fast as frigid temps and wet, freezing conditions, but continuing to stack layers will restrict your ability to travel through the mountains. By upgrading our Blizzard Bib Pant to an innovative synthetic insulation that uses trapped air to replicate the warmth and compressibility of down, we’re able to add warm-when-wet performance—plus significantly reduce bulk—so you’ll be comfortable and mobile in a whiteout.

Review: Muy buen material
Review: This item is not that warm. It certainly does not meet up to its expectations calling it a "blizzard". Sitka says it is it's warmest parka. Ha! While it is very light I wish it had a slight more amount of insulation. I hunted in the mountains, weather was 9 deg., it was cold. I had to where another jacket under it to keep warm. This parka is way over rated and would never trust it on its own to keep me warm in this kind of weather. I paid a great deal of money for the name Sitka and not worth this amount. There are other products out there at a much lesser price point that can easily do the job this parka provided and then more! Don't spend your massive amounts of money on this parka.
