    John Padilla's review

    The General’s Down Sweater is a must have for backcountry skiing. It’s light and packable, yet warm and filled with premium down insulation. I have several color ways and use mine for sledskiing as a layer to ride home in after I have sweat and the sun has gone down. Also great for standing around as a Filmer!

    Stylish enough to be worn on its own, warm, and not too bulky to wear under a shell jacket skiing. All at a good price. Quality brand!
