Today, we're taking a closer look at Live for the Outdoors 'Best Down Jackets' review. In their tests our Halogen lightweight down jacket gets awarded the Best Value Lightweight Down Jacket, so grab a cup of coffee, and get into the weeds.

First things first, the review showcases the Halogen as a standout down jacket. The reviewer highlights its value, innovation, and comfort, noting that Our recommendations all excel for different reasons, be it value, innovation, or comfort. But one thing they all share is use of ethically sourced and traceable down feathers. This immediately sets a positive tone, emphasizing Alpkit’s commitment to ethical practices while also piquing the interest of eco-conscious consumers. LFTO review Chris Williams continues... one of the unique things about Alpkit is that you aren’t sacrificing quality or eco credentials.

The review goes on to praise the Halogen for bringing value to high-performance down jackets, a hallmark of our approach to outdoor gear since forever. With a weight of just 255g and made from 100% recycled 10D nylon, the jacket is highlighted for its eco-friendly credentials and high-quality materials. The 800-fill down is RDS-certified, ensuring that it is ethically sourced and traceable, which is a huge plus for those looking to make responsible purchasing decisions.

Functionality-wise, the Halogen doesn’t disappoint Chris who appreciates the jackets trio of pockets. The jacket's fit and comfort are also commended. The review suggests considering a size up for a more comfortable fit, which is a helpful tip for hillwalkers wearing extra layers underneath this winter.

In terms of aesthetics, the Halogen is described as having an athletic, stylish and tailored fit.
