- Here is a review of the 66 North Jokla Down Parka. I discuss whether it is the warmest parka on the market, the down quality, and compare it to Outdoor Survival Canada Mission Jacket and Canada Goose Snow Mantra.
Let me know what parka you have and how you like it!

Thanks for the review, I was thinking about buying this jacket for use in Sweden
Nice to see a proper review of a lesser known winter clothing brand, I picked up the Gortex version of 66° North's Tindur down jacket last winter and apart from being rather expensive it's possibly the best down jacket I've ever had, round where I live the TNF Nupste along with anything by Canada Goose or Moncler has become a winter uniform for anyone under 35 who's into clothing so it's also nice to have something a bit different. I'd be interested to try the Jokla, much as I love my Canada Goose I'm probably going to swap it this winter for a parka I'm less likely to see someone else wearing, Nobis and OSC are good for that as well.
On the subject of the OSC Mission, I asked them for some technical specs as there's so little info out there and was told it has sizing that's similar to the expedition grade Canada Goose parkas, an overall weight of about 7lb (3.2kg) and a fill weight of approximately 1.32lb (600g), to be honest I expected more for something rated to -60c, perhaps I'll have to get one and try it out for myself.
600g of down, with a fp 800 and a 90:10 down feathers ratio is a lot of down. The fjallraven expedition down parka n°1 has 650g of down with fp800 and a 95:5 ratio and is sensibly loftier than snow mantra and resolute parka
Great review
Thanks you!
That jackets looks AMAZING
The hood is very good, thanks. Your video helped me!
Appreciated!
Great review. I just bought a jacket from 66 North - women's Krafla coat. While I liked the jacket... for no reason, a hole appeared after 3 weeks in the front of the jacket in the shell! They are refusing a refund... repair only. I was hoping to invest in a coat for many many years to come and now I'm worried I'll have to replace it if more holes appear. I hope your jacket lasts.
Yea that unfortunate. I find those types of down jackets with the lighter out fabric to poke holes easier. Depending how big the whole is, try getting some tenacious tape from amazon or something. I've used it to patch other down jackets in the past and its worked great. Try getting the tape in the same colour as the jacket if possible.
Tks for sharing 👍
No problem 👍
i like the look of the 66north. i’ll check it the women’s model.
Yea that women's version looks really nice as well.
I picked that jacket up when I was in Iceland, I love it !!! For some reason when I have the hood up, it feels like the whole jacket sits on my head and not on my shoulders.
Yea I find that too some times. What I usually do is shape that bend the outer trim of the hood to be more of an oval that is taller than wide and it takes the weight off for me. I also find if the zipper is done up all the way, the hood isn't as heavy on your head.
Also really cool you went to Iceland, hoping to go this year. Do you have a favorite spot you recommend checking out?
@@WillFaulkner I also own the Outdoor Canada Survival Atka, which is just amazing, I would say the quality is a bit higher and more robust and cheaper, but still love my Jokla. Yes I recommend the entire country :) ive been there twice now and will probably go back later in the year. I would say the best time ive had was snowmobiling on one of their glaciers, just have to time it right with the weather so I wouldn't book it until you are there (depending on season).
@@amtraker That sounds sweet. Apparently you can camp around most of Iceland for free. That probably my plan to save some money there.
@@WillFaulkner Yes you certainly can and couch surfing is very common.
.....shhh, the giraffe is talking again... (Pointing at amtraker).. ;)
Jan 13 2024, Altitude sports lists it as not in stock, 66 North has a list price for the Jökla at $1966CAD, looks like you got a good deal at the right time.
Thanks for the informative review on this jacket! I am looking into getting one but I have one question, is the fur around the hood removable? Or is it a configuration that you need to choose while placing the order? Thanks!
you can remove the fur
My comments dissapears all the time. Don't know why...
Anyway, I will try again. The name is
Fjällräven expedition down parka no 1. They seems to have stopped the production, but I managed to buy one in october from Amazon.
The total weight is 2650g, so it's a massive parka. 800 fill from 95/5 goose down, and around 750 grams of down in my XL parka.
Wow, I would have picked that up had it been available still. Hopefully they bring it back.
Got one a year ago, they only produced 50 pcs in total, so you must have gotten one of the very last one's. This Parka is made for the Arctic which is exactly were I use it.
I think they produced 50 per year, not totally 50
@@tommyeriksson8781 There’s actually an interview with the DI where they as Martín Nordin about this jacket, the answer is “why would we produce just 50 jackets…” , I’ve been trying to find the interview….but at the end who cares, it’s a one hell of a jacket! :)
I've another fjallraven expedition down parka, in size L. Is sensibly loftier than snow mantra and resolute parka and with box wall construction
I’ll stick with my Canada Goose Expedition here in Minnesota.
Shackleton out of the UK is an outstanding and warm parka. Check out their Endurance model.
Wow looks nice. Also made it Italy !
@@WillFaulkner I wonder why Italy? Interesting
Checked out that Endurance parka , do you own one User _ hu3 ?
@@stedye Indeed I do. My model has a detachable hood. It looks like the newer model has a permanently attached hood which I would prefer. Quality construction. Warm. I only wear it on my coldest Minnesota walks.
hello and congratulations. Are you interested in understanding what size you wore in the test? how tall are you? Also, dressing relatively lightly at -10 degrees does it still keep you warm? I have a Canada Goose Expedition and unfortunately, in the sleeves already at -2 degrees you can feel the cold spots in the seams very strongly. I would like to understand how this north 66 behaves. Thank you very much
I'm 6'1, and wearing a large. I have been plenty warm with just a t-shirt to -10 Celcius. If your talking -10 fahrenheit, I would wear a fleece under the jacket.
Hello and thanks for the reply. I am 180 cm tall and weigh 92 kg. I'm 49 and normally shouldn't wear it with bulky clothing. I'm physically quite imposing, I have large balls but no belly. In your opinion, for how your size L fits, I should take a size Medium or Large like the ruo jokla?
A curiosity, have you encountered cold spots inside ? For example in the sleeves ? With my Canada Goose expedition parka unfortunately already at zero degrees centigrade after 10 minutes if I remove the parka inside the bust is warm but if I touch the sleeves you can feel the stitches cold in the seams.. For me it's absurd at zero degrees or -5 centigrade to have this problem with a 1500 Euro shipping apo
@@francescocolavolpe4660 At your size, Id go with the large. The medium I think would be snug especially in the shoulders.
@@francescocolavolpe4660 I haven't experienced it but some people do say this jacket does get cold spots as well. Mainly near the front zipper. I wonder if these parkas have slight cold spots for breathability? Or maybe its tough to get cold spots out entirely. It is unfortunate given how much they cost.
What size is it and what size do you normally wear from other brands?
True to size, normally wear large jackets and this was in a large
@@WillFaulkner Thank you!
Where is your Jokla jacket made? Latvia or China? I was under the assumption these products are made in Iceland
They are made in china.
How about moose knuckle!
I didn’t like the look for their parkas, they seemed for fashion focused. I believe they didn’t provide any details of the down fill or weight either which makes it hard to judge the warmth. Do you have one of theirs you like?
@@WillFaulkner yes i just bought 3q parka which is the warmest by moose knuckle.
I have the North Face expedition parka and way better then Canada goose ,I am a Italian Canadian not a big fun of Canada goose ,it’s just a waste of money
How is northace better are you serious?
Osc
Nice. But for 400 dollars, I have a Carhartt, Boots and Thermals that keep me just as warm if not warmer.. Nice jacket though...
Do you know what carhartt jacket mode you have. I have tried looking at there stuff recently but it is hard to differentiate with are the fashion items and which are actually the quality work items.
@@WillFaulkner Carhartt doesn’t make “fashion items” they’ve only ever made high quality work items. I’m surprised you couldn’t see that since you said you recently looked at their stuff. The Carhartt Yukon Extremes insulated parka is their warmest.
@@pl9171 Thanks for the recommendation. You might not be their target audience for the fashion items so you haven't seen them. It the stuff they sell at urban outfitters and stuff.
reviewing most advanced 66N parka indoors... oh man...
Yea I was sweating bullets my the end
Maybe warmer but it’s ugly
That is fair. I do agree that Canada Goose does the fashion aspect very well.
Try a "PHD" custom coat from the UK . Far superior to just about anything on the market
I will check it out! Thanks for the recommendation.
@@WillFaulkner Peter Hutchinson Designs .
I think my Fjällräven Down parka no 1 can match this jacket. Super warm and cozy
@@tommyeriksson8781 Are you refering to the GreenLand Down Jacket? I've taken a look at that one online before but I thought it wouldn't be that warm based on how much down is inside. 130g of down in greenland vs 450g in the 66 north.
What tempratures are you wearing it in? I might check it out again!
@@WillFaulkner my Fjällräven expedition down parka no 1 jacket have 95/5 goose down, 800 fill and around 750g.
