Delivery took one week but living in arctic circle I am used to wait things to arrive. I am 184cm and 80 kilos so went for L-size and have to say it is just perfect size. Nice slim cut and hood is just fits nicely over fur hat. It´s been around -30 celsius and Filo keeps me warm just with fleece and long sleeve base. Only downside is that I have to take fleece off if I am doing anything more active than walking. And the red color is straight from McMurdo. Love it!

Very good service - 36 hours from order to delivery. Jacket as advertied and I am happy with it. I do however, have a suggested improvement i.e. cut down the scallopped tail by 4 centimetres (it is plenty long) and increase the overall body lenght by 2 centimetres. Thank you alpkit - v satisfied

The jacket arrived so quickly and is a great fit.  i am slim and went for the small and it fits like a glove.  Others I have tried on in shops make me look like a weeble, but not this one.  Warm and comfortable (round the house) and waiting for the rain to stop so I can wear it outside!

Brilliant service - thank you.

Wow! Just love my new jacket - so soft and warm and lightweight! Lovely colour and now my 12 year old daughter wants one too… At last practicality meets beauty and at a great price. Excellent service too - next day delivery. Well done all.

What can I say…. Order one for my wife for Christmas and it arrived within a couple of days which is the usual Alpkit way. As it was quite cold she spent most of Christmas wearing it and she kept telling me how warm it was….. So as soon as some new stock arrived I ordered myself one. Tried it out on Dartmoor at the weekend and its great!! Only problem now is we look like one of those couples with matching outfits…... Great work ALPKIT!

The Filo arrived quickly as promised. I was amazed how light it was and how small it packs up to.I am glad I went for the XXL as I like a loose fit and may wear another layer with it.

REALLY, really pleased with my Filo jacket. Excellent quality, design and exceptional price. My husband is also really keen to purchase a Filo and awaits stock.

Contact and follow up emails with AlpKit staff has been excellent. As other customers have commented, Alpkit website has been added to my ’ favorites’.

WOW I am sat in chair with my lovely new jacket on willing the snow to come back. Having been half-heartedly looking for a replacement down jacket for a long time, I can’t believe i am finally wearing one that, not only ticks ALL the boxes on specification, but didn’t cost a fortune.Excellent and well thought through design. Thank you for an excellent service too and a thank you should go to the guy in the pub who let me try on his jacket and gave me your website address. Alpkit now on my favourite list.

Yay, I’ve finally treated myself to a Filo!

It’s wonderful - just as snuggly and warm as my Alpkit sleeping bag.

Thanks for great service as always! Happy New Year to you too!
