Filo Reviews

Went to AlpKit to get my jacket impressed with the service. The coat is the best thing i have purchased I must say i hate being hold while camping and walking so this was a good buy.  I have worn it for a while once of twice and have been very impressed.  Thank you very much!

Hi, I came to collect my jacket straight from alpkit HQ, I wasn’t sure what to expect due to the price being so low. But I was super happy with the quality, and gives the higher end competitors a run for their money. When I got home I showed my girlfriend my purchase and she was so impressed with it that we came back the next day and got her one too. Got to agree with the comments below about the pocket liners snagging on dry skin and the logo being printed rather than embroidered, but for the price these are minor compromises and don’t affect the overall quality or warmth of the product. Keep up the good work!

My filo arrived a few days ago (ahead of when I expected it which is awesome). First impressions were very good and were backed up in use at the weekend. It’s very warm, the extended back is perfect (I’m 6ft 2 so jackets often aren’t long enough - I got a size L) and it is very light weight. Only point of feedback is the metal eyelets for the hem elastic - previous experience of these suggests they won’t stay attached for long and may rip the fabric but that being said il hopefully be proven wrong. All in all an incredibly good value jacket.

Received my filo 4 days ago and when I first picked it up I wasn’t sure how warm it would be because it was so lightweight compared to my previous down jackets. Well I have to say I am well impressed and it just goes to prove lightweight can be very warm too.

Thank you again, Alpkit Team - service faster than expected - Filo jacket too b####y hot to wear indoors!! Have to agree with the ‘embroidered logo’ suggestion as it will be a great pity when the transfer wears off and you lose your advertising capability!!

Just swapped my Xmas medium for a large in double quick time, ace service as always. Hand pockets would in my opinion have been better left in the pertex style outer fabric as it clings on rough skin fingernails etc, and a few lose threads jamming the zip on a first try on that a quick nip with the scisors have sorted. Overall a great product with the pockets being my only snag.

First class jacket and excellent value for money.  But more importantly the service from the team was excellent.  Prompt reponses and the jacket was delivered almost before I’d placed the order!!
Well done Alpkit team.

a fantastic jacket, warm as toast and the down filled hood is amazing.
Only issue i have is the horrible pocket linings, the material is really not good on dry cracked hands.

Arrived sooner than I expected - very prompt.
A perfect fit! I’ll be giving it a thorough test in Nepal in April, but I’ve already recommended it to the neighbours.

I NOW HAVE MY NEW JACKET AND IM NOT DISSAPOINTED THEN I DID NOT THINK I WOULD BE GREAT VALUE
