Does this jacket have a drastring to keep the cold air from getting in underneath it?<br /><br />2. Does it have a hood?<br /><br />3. Does it have inside pockets?<br /><br />4. Am I correct in assuming that rainresistant means that this thing will absorb water in a heavy rainstorm? question_137204 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:36:58 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Mountain-Hardwear-Sub-Zero-SL-Hooded-Down-Jacket-Mens/MHW0016M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136843#question_136843 Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Hooded Down Jacket - Men's<br /><br />I&#39;m not sure which size to buy fter reading everyone&#39;s comments. I think that I may need a Medium, but I&#39;m not sure. I&#39;m about 5&#39;10, 165 pounds. I want to be able to wear a layer or two under the jacket and not have it feel too tight. I&#39;m wondering if I purchase the Large, if I would swim in it?...any suggestions? question_136843 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:35:12 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Mountain-Hardwear-Sub-Zero-Down-Jacket-Mens/MHW0018M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136825#question_136825 Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Down Jacket - Men's<br /><br />Is anyone out there about 5&#39;11, 177 lbs? I got a large size and Im deathly afraid the medium was the way to go...Please tell me I was correct in my purchase... question_136825 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 21:01:50 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/The-North-Face-Ice-Down-Jacket-Mens/TNF1844M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136748#question_136748 The North Face Ice Down Jacket - Men's<br /><br />Hi, I&#39;m 6&#39;0 (183cm) 265lbs (120kg), chest 50 inches and sleeve about 35 inches (if I measured the sleeve correctly, from neck to wrist is it?)<br /><br />What size should I get, XXL maybe? And how close is this Ice Jacket to TNF&#39;s McMurdo Parka in sizing? A bit smaller I&#39;m guessing? Cuz I got chance to try McMurdo, and XL was better than XXL. Then again other jackets were better in XXL, so... All help/opinions much appreciated! question_136748 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:22:45 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/The-North-Face-Thunder-Down-Jacket-Mens/TNF3637M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136707#question_136707 The North Face Thunder Down Jacket - Men's<br /><br />Which product is better (i.e. warmer, lighter, higher quality, better value, etc.):<br /><br />TNF Thunder Down Jacket vs. Marmot Zeus Down Jacket.<br /><br />Both are 800 fill, around 14 ounces, and seem pretty comparable in every way.
