What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “This is a jacket I trust for a wide range of activities. It layers easily under a shell for ski days but still feels great worn on its own for hikes or climbs. The warmth-to-weight balance is spot on, and it never feels restrictive when I’m moving.” We turn to the Transcendent Down Hooded Jacket when we want one insulating layer that can do it all. Designed by Outdoor Research for active cold-weather days, this jacket keeps us comfortable whether we’re skinning uphill, climbing in crisp conditions, or heading out for a casual winter walk. It’s streamlined enough for layering and warm enough to stand alone when conditions allow. Lightweight down insulation delivers reliable warmth without weighing us down, while the durable outer fabric helps block wind and shrug off light moisture. An insulated hood adds extra coverage when temperatures dip, and elastic-bound cuffs with an adjustable hem help seal in heat. Built for movement and versatility, this jacket is a dependable companion for everything from mountain missions to everyday winter wear.
