Ordered the filo on Monday morning and it arrived Tuesday!! Great service and love the personal touch of hand written letter!

Now the jacket, all I can say is excellent! Much lighter and even warmer than the one it is replacing.

The fit is great and little things like the drop tail make a difference the material is lovely and the instant you put the jacket on you start to feel warmed.

All in all an excellent jacket so good the wife’s arrived yesterday grin and she is also very pleased and loves the colour (berry)

Good job Alpkit grin keep it up

Received the Filo today. Great service from Alpkit as usual. The Filo Down Jacket exceeds my expectations. Excellent quality and looks fine in lego blue. The hood fits well and will provide good protection from the elements. I am hoping to getting years of good use out of it.

To summarise. An excellent and comfortable down jacket. Worth every penny.

Thanks again to Alpkit.

Bravo, finally a jacket that does exactly what it says on the tin. Had mine for a month and have worn it everyday, previously had north face and rab, yours is far warmer. Please Please consider making it in a 3/4 length version for us ladies, so we can be just as warm in our suits on work days, as we are on the hills?

Got 1 day after I ordered, execellent jacket, if anything to warm on first outing. Walking dog at -2c, I had to pull zip down to @ 1/3. I do run ‘hot’ though.
I can’t wait for lower temps. to give a good test.

A small squishy package has just arrived at my office and, Lo, it is a lovely new ice blue down jacket. Took no more than a day to get from Derbyshire to Cardiff, well done. I shall test it on Pen-y-fan in the snow tomorrow. Thank you Alpkit.

A good one, at the first sight it appeared to be very poor and very light,  I am wearing it now at -13..-24 °C humidity 70-90%, and it keeps me in warm, I am very satisfied with it.

Seriously Alpkit, good effort! Ordered my new filo 11am yesterday, by midday today, I’m wearing it!
Now for the jacket. I’ve got a small jacket and I definitely fall into that category too at 5’ 5”. Not too ample fit, just right to get a small fleece underneath. Fleece pockets are a nice touch too. I’ve got it in Lego blue, great colour. Would recommend this jacket to anyone who wants a good value down jacket; looking forward to some sub zero weather now!

Was a great fit, tested it out thursday on walk up to victoria cave, sat in there having a brew while snow came down, very warm with only a base layer underneath, this is a great jacket, just as good as some of the more expensive makes, THANK YOU ALPKIT for such a great product. Will be using you again and telling all my friends about you.
