Product Description
The legendary Halo Down Jacket is warm, compact and a great all-rounder — perfect for urban adventure, travel, hiking and camping. Filled with 600 loft Responsible Down Standard (RDS) duck down and featuring elasticated cuffs and an adjustable hem, this jacket works to keep you warm by trapping heat against your body. The lightweight nylon outer fabric (and lining) is bluesign® approved and features a short-chain C6 water repellent finish to protect against moisture. A separate stuff sack is included for convenient storage when packing your bags for the next adventure. The Responsible Down Standard (RDS) is an independent, voluntary global standard in the ethical sourcing of down and feathers — the RDS ensures our down comes from humanely treated ducks and geese and helps to provide traceability in our supply chain. All our down is 100% RDS certified. Similarly, bluesign® certification confirms these specific fabrics have been manufactured with responsible use of resources and the lowest possible impact on people and the environment. Both the outer and lining fabrics are bluesign® certified in the Halo Down Jacket.

If my chest measurements are within range of a certain size, would I need to size up if I wanted to wear the jacket over top of a jumper?
BEST ANSWER: Hello Paige,
It depends on how close your measurements are to the next larger size. Imagine you're wearing a jumper and if your measurements are in between those listed in the size chart, we recommend picking the next larger size.
Kind regards,
Macpac Team

I got my jacket and it’s really flat. Does it get “puffy” on its own? or?
BEST ANSWER: Hello Mele, good question! Please do give it a few weeks to puff / loft up. It is likely this jacket has been in it's compression sack from factory for a few months - so will get better with time.

Would the Southerly and Halo be the same size-wise?
BEST ANSWER: Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for your enquiry.
I can advise that the Halo style is a little bit longer and a bit more of a boxier fit than the Southerly.

I have a Fairydown Puffer that MacPac sold a few years ago. How does the sizing compare to these ones?
BEST ANSWER: Hello Hayley, very hard to say depending on model. But if the models are similar then the sizing is very likely to be the same. One thing we would recommend is don't upsize on the Halo - this is generous sizing to allow for a few layers underneath.

A lot of reviews comment on loss of feathers. Why does this happen on some jackets? Can the jacket be returned if it’s ‘leaky’?
BEST ANSWER: Hello Kristine, thank you for your question. You will find all down jackets will leak a small amount of down from new. This is feathers (which are very fine) coming out from the stitching. This will settle down with use, and should be much better after 4 weeks or so. If the feather is coming from the material itself, it's important to try and work the feather back into the jacket, as pulling it out will leave a small hole in the material. Of course if you are unsatisfied after this, you are more than welcome to return the jacket for assessment, and a full replacement or refund will be offered if considered faulty.
