I've been using the Decathlon Trek 100 Down Jacket for the past 8 months and want to update you guys on how I think it performs! The jacket is 100% the best budget down jacket and, I think, the best overall down jacket on the market when you consider all factors (quality, price, features, function, and sustainability/ethics).

I bought this jacket yesterday in uk for £59.99, I bought the biggest one 3XL at first I looked a the fill in the baffles and thought there was not too much, on my way home, I had to wait for a bus and it must have been around -3C it was that cold where your fingers start to get so cold in a short time, I put this jacket on, and although I got the one thats way too big, it all went underneath my decathlon hardshell jacket really snug, I was amazed at how warm it felt in that temperature, it took just moments for me to warm up when I had the jacket on, I was just stood, not walking at all the hood fitted under the hardshell hood really well, and my head and ears were really nice and warm, I am pretty impressed really, it packs away nicely, down is expensive, bit its got a lovely feel as it plums up, I have the 10C decathlon sleeping bag which uses the same really good fill down and is always impressive how it lofts up from almost nothing. The jacket I think is a great thing to just have in your pack hiking, or even around town just as you said, its so light and packs so small if you compress it.

I have both the Decathalon down jacket and the Mountain Hardware Ghost Whisperer 2 down jacket. While the Mountain Hardware jacket is lighter than the Decathalon jacket you cannot beat the Decathalon when it comes to warmth and price. I have had the Decathalon down to 9 degrees farenheight with just a hoody layer under the jacket and was toasty warm. I would not attempt that cold of a temp with the Mountain Hardware jacket. If i had known about the Decathalon jacket first i never would have spent the money on the Mountain Hardware jacket

I have to agree with you! After watching a video you made last year about this jacket, I decided to get one and it was great for backpacking in January and February. temps got to 15 degrees F and all I wore under was a wool base layer! Highly recommend this product as well!

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can run cord through the hood’s rim (it forms a natural channel) and you can then then cinch the hood to a close fit.

I paid for mine and it is such a great jacket. The fit is great for me and the warmth and comfort are top notch. If you buy other big name jackets that's exactly and only what you are paying for, the name. Down is down. Also this jacket has a slightly thicker denier shell which will make it more resistant to tears. I love winter hiking but not a fan of the cold at all. Problem solved with a base and mid layer and this jacket. We just hiked around a reservoir yesterday and the entire south east damm wall was exposed to 30 degree steady heavy wind coming across the water and I didn't feel a bit if it and I assumed I would without a shell. Can't say enough about Decathlon for value to price.
@matthewsalomone3800

I'm a medium slim fit. So I followed instructions in order to size up and got a large. However, the large was still too tight. I attempted to do an exchange but because I had removed the 50 tags inside the jacket they refused. If you purchase this jacket I just want to say it is a very nicely made jacket. Just be sure not to remove the tags until you've worn the jacket a while and you've determined whether or not it fits you correctly. The large seem to fit me fine and I was very impressed with the quality and went ahead and removed the 50 lb of tags hanging on the inside of the jacket. Unfortunately when I went out to eat and got into the car to sit down it was very tight around my chest. I had to unzip it. I had to unzip it when I went to go eat. This is very inconvenient. They have such a nice product. I hope that they get the sizing straightened out.

Just received this Jack today. I'm 5'8 150 lbs (slim). I sized up and ordered an L. While it is a touch on the large side I think the M would have been a just a bit too tight. I tested the jacket over some mid layers / hoodies and it fit just right. I plan to use this as a summit and everyday around town. I also have a Patagonia nano puff in L but it is now to too big since I lost a bunch of weight.

i think its really good someone cares more about getting people OUT to actually LIVE n see this beautiful world more then stealing their money... we definitely need more companies like that.. not just to save money but to make people feel better by being able to get out with atleast decent gear, i guess u get what u pay for..but. i work full time and cant even afford a vehicle right now so i havnt been able to go hike and backpacking like i want / need to , in couple years now .. ive always been an outdoor person i hate being couped up inside.. so i mean it when i say its literally killing my Soul not being able to go walk through the woods just because i cant afford it even working the way i do.. we only get so much time here and while i want to see the world and everything in it. I would settle for being able to see some of my country atleast before i die... alwways wanted to hike the AT and PCT but have excepted the fact im just never going to be able to... so those of you who can afford to get out there and explore and actually live i hope you know how lucky and blessed you truly are.

The price now is $79.99 USD. And that is not a complaint at all, I just wanted to let people know. Honestly I've bought 3-5 synthetic jackets online looking for a nice warm mid layer or outer layer when it's not as cold. I do outdoor labor and just want / need a light jacket and warmth. That's it. I'm so used to Carhartt and Wrangler and it's all heavy duty heavy work gear, which is fine. But it's all usually so bulky and heavy. These jackets are weightless for me compared to those. I don't need packability or anything you hikers and stuff need, but I'm glad this can satisfy some of those needs for you. So just warmth and fairly lightweight and I was sold. I just ordered mine and I look forward to trying it out. I had purchased some Arcteryx jackets which are great, but I just don't need all the specialized features. I know this jacket won't hold out long long term (I'd say 3 max), but for now I think it'll suit me. Thanks Justin.

I found that the sleeves are really lacking a lot of loft and down fill. The down even seemed like it already migrated to one side of the sleeves leaving one side without down and no loft. I just ordered a return of the first jacket because of this and ordered another jacket to replace it. I'll try the dryer and dryer ball trick if I still have the same problem with the new jacket. Hoping the new jacket has better down distribution because I really want to like the jacket because of the good reviews it has for it's price.

Great reviews! You have me sold.. Do you know if the sizing for the coat you have is the same as US sizes? The sleeves look a tad long, but workable for you.. I'm debating between M & L, I'm only 5'8" 155lbs 39" chest but freakishly short sleeve length of only 32.5", by the time it gets around my gut, the sleeves are too long lol.. But for a trail piece, might longer sleeves be desirable?
@JustinOutdoors
@JustinOutdoors 4 года назад
The sizes I mention are US sizes. The jacket lists European and US sizes on the label, but I go by US sizes since that's what I am more familiar with. I think you have to go with a L with a 39in chest. You won't be able to do up the zipper on the medium I don't think. I have 33in arms (also short!) if that helps see how long the sleeves might be on you.

I purchased a Large and it was a tiny sized Medium at best, waiting for the XL to show up. The price is awesome for certain colors $60, or $89 for others. Definitely size up from standard U.S sizes. I hope that the XL will fit like the MHW large, they basically cloned the Ghost Whisperer with this jacket. For the price, I can use it as a work jacket/play jacket and not really care if it gets torn, or ruined.

are you using this static or active? i'm assuming static. if it stays warm to -15C or even -7C sitting static would be awesome for the price

Static. Down isn't great for active insulation.

Hey Justin, or Justin community. Speaking of down jackets, has anyone tried or gotten the Naturehike 1000 FP Jacket from AliExpress? it between that one and this one. The Naturehike seems to be a bit better in most cases, but I am (obviously) nervous about buying anything from Aliexpress. Thanks for any response. Keep up the good work!
@JustinOutdoors
@JustinOutdoors 4 года назад
I haven't used it personally but have heard reports that the 1000 CUIN rating is probably incorrect and that it comes pretty loftless. This jacket would be much warmer than the Naturehike jacket based on the specs.

The XL will probably be a perfect fit. If you want a bit of extra room, the XXL may be needed.

Looks good but the down has not been treated with Down Defender like Marmot. Looks like Marmot, Rddie Bauer etx dont have anything to worry about yet

Hey! Here's an interesting blurb from Western Mountaineering and why I don't worry too much about whether down has a hydrophobic treatment or not! "We have found in our own testing that the performance enhancements of hydrophobic treatments on high quality down are widely overstated. High quality untreated down already has naturally water repellant oils on it left by the geese (makes sense since geese spend a lot of time in water). These oils help repel water and keep down lofted. More importantly is that these oils last indefinitely. Hydrophobic treatments wash out like a DWR and remove the natural oils during the application process. Because of this, and the water resistant capability of our shell fabrics, we feel that hydrophobic down does not provide a considerable impact on performance and could actually inhibit performance over the lifetime of our products."

Hey Justin. Any insight on when this will be available to ship to Canada/Alberta? How did you go about getting yours? Thanks.

Hopefully soon! Decathlon opened up nationwide shipping and they told me that they are work to make all of their stock available.

Great question! It's the left pocket and you turn the pocket inside out and then you can start stuffing the rest of the jacket into the inside out pocket!

Hey thanks for the review - can you explain to me what the difference is between Quechua Decathlon vs Decathalon? I see them listed interchangably ?
@JustinOutdoors
@JustinOutdoors Год назад
Quechua is a sub-brand under Decathlon. You can look at Quechua, Forclaz, Wedze, etc as being product categories under the Decathlon name.

Nice - you are the MAN...man :) thank you. I am purchasing based on your recommendation. Have been on the fence with ordering a Decathlon down jacket for a few seasons. Living in Alaska I like to have a nice selection of layers upon layers - for every condit. ion. You never know what to expect. Layer smarter not harder

I am a sucker for a cool color block pattern - think cotopaxi - puffy jackets are my Achilles. BUt after 40 years I finally did the research and realized that I am literally paying for a label . In AK it's high fashion to show up in a shkoop mini skirt, xtra tuffs and a nano puff -
