Uniqlo Men's Down Jacket $99.90 with Free Shipping (RRP $149.90)

180

Posted this in the comments for the Macpac Down Jacket that's also $99.99 plus shipping but has no hood https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/389067

I got one of these when i moved to Canberra, and it keeps me pretty warm on my commute to work. The hood and fake fur are detachable if they don't suit your style. The pockets are really nice as they have both a button closeable pocket and side pockets to put your hands in.

Similarly to the Macpac, these jackets may run a bit large so you may want to order a size down (unless you want to go for the full Michelin Man look)

One thing that I'm not sure about is where Uniqlo source their down, as it is not provided on their website.

Edit: I did a bit more digging, so even though they are not part of the Responsible Down Standard, their FAQs state their down is not sourced from live-plucked animals.

      I bet half the people down-voting you wear leather shoes. Or they're the kind of credulous gits that believe the bogus PETA suggestions that the fur industry routinely skins animals alive or sheep that sheep are mutilated every time they get sheared.

    I always check the RDS site:

    I can't see Uniqlo on there :-(

    Yep, one reason I bought my down jacket from Columbia is because Uniqlo's aren't responsibly sourced.

  • Bought last week in store for 99 as well, incredibly warm. Same warmth as my other Kathmandu epiq one.
