Sorin Hooded Waterproof Down Parka

i bought this 2 years ago,came in very good condition, brand new, and perfect, i climed mt everest with this 100/10

Terrifically warm, light and comfortable. Easy mobility, Insulation is excellent, not bulky or overbearing in weight. Snow and water bead off it quickly. Expect it to last a lifetime.

Love the comfort, easy warmth/insulation, & waterproofing features of this high end Parka. I typically wear a size medium for Veilance jackets (Monitor Down & Altus Down alike) and chose a Medium size for the Sorin as well. The sleeves of the Small Size Sorin were a little too short & the tighter fit would limit layering options & compromise warmth. On colder outings (20°F or below) the generous boxy design/fit of the Medium Sorin easily accommodates layering with the Veilance MIONN (or more). Yes the hood adjustability feels unresolved & no I’m not at all sure what the internal elasticized collar adjustments actually do nor how they impact the experience. The website also states “Centre-front secures with hidden Cobrax snaps for a clean, low-profile finish”; yet the Cobrax snaps are nowhere to be found. For a high end price tag that the Sorin is demanding the unresolved & misleading design/descriptions should not be happening -otherwise I would’ve given a Five Star Rating. I wear a wool cap topped with a Veilance Bucket Hat. The shape of the Bucket hat helps secure the hood (the hood itself is generously deep allowing my face to be warm within the recess ) even against a strong head on wind. Overall Love the design & warmth but had to work to find options that keep the hood in place.

The jacket is warm and comfortable, but can be a bit bulky. The zipper is notably more difficult to connect and zip up as it appears too small to grasp. A larger two-way zipper would be preferred.

Very warm parka. I tried it walking around outside in -15C and felt very comfortable. In my estimate 15-20% warmer than a Canada Goose Langford that I own Highly recommend sizing down. I typically wear M sized clothing and a S fit me great
