Outdoor Research Virtuoso Down Jacket _ REVIEW
Outdoor Research has several down jackets to choose from in their current 2011/2012 winter line up.
Last season we reviewed the Outdoor Research Transcendent Hoody which is a lightweight compact down jacket. Today we are going to cover it's burly big brother (or sister) the Outdoor Research Virtuoso Down Jacket. The Virtuoso provides considerable more warmth when compared to the Transcendent Hoody and is naturally bulkier when compressed, however, it is surprising just how small you can compress it. Naturally, using a stuff sac works well in achieving maximum 'stuffage' alternatively the right hand pocket is designed to accommodate the jacket and also provide a convenient fleece lined pillow for hut trips.
