It is a very good quality jacket, especially for the price. I liked the matte finish and the fit but it was too short so I ended up returning it. I ended up buying a Stone Island puffer jacket which is more than 4 times the price but not 4 times the quality.
I think the 3d cut is that the shoulders arent stitched like you'd see on for example a normal t-shirt. instead of going over the shoulders it goes over the upper back. Atleast that's my guess based on the two 3d mock neck soufflés that I have from them that are done in the same way.
imo the less padded look of the hybrid is more stylish but less packable. Also has more pockets if that's important to you. The hybrid is slightly warmer and heavier (according to the chart on the Uniqlo website), but as always, whether that's a pro or con depends on your environment/activity.
Can't say for sure cuz it depends on the wind conditions, your body's cold tolerance, the activity you'll be doing, how thick/warm your inner layer is, etc. The general advice is to wear a moisture wicking base layer (polyester/synthetics or merino wool), an insulation layer (wool, fleece etc) and finally a windproof/waterproof outer layer (this jacket). Hope this helps!
Didn't try the others so I can't comment much, but I like how the seamless down jacket is right in the middle in terms of warmth, weight and style. Style aside, really depends on the features you need and the temperature you're in. For example, go for the hybrid down if you need exterior pockets, the ultra light down if your other layers are already solid and have less need for a super warm jacket etc. Too bad I don't live in a winter climate, otherwise I'll be reviewing all those haha.
I'd go with an S if you intend to layer it over chunkier tops. Otherwise an XS is better over thinner layers. Best to refer to Uniqlo's size chart, hope that helps!
would you recommend this jacket for autumn? i plan to travel to jpn this year, do you think it would be bulky to carry around if i took it off if it get hot its my first time traveling to such weather like these, i live in SEA
Depends which part of Japan you're going, but I wouldn't wear this is autumn, especially if you'll be indoors often. Definitely bulky (in terms of space, not weight; it's a hassle to shop or take a picture with one hand holding the jacket) to carry around, so I prefer a wool/fleece layer where there's less of the urge to remove it indoors.
Wouldn't recommend tight fits for winter gear as it'll constrict your blood flow and make you colder. M sounds about right for your height, but best to try it in store.
Such an underrated channel.
I can see you growing up real soon. Keep it up
Thanks man, that's the plan!
Good videos to watch early in the morning with my tea and biscuit. 👍
Thanks mate, you have a great day!
amazing quality video and great use of drawing diagrams
I appreciate your kind words, cheers!

well... at least you get 4 times the drip
@@subtlesartorialist 😁 I wish, it's mostly loved by football hooligans and gangsters here in the UK unfortunately.
@@ronniep9272so is these Uniqlo puffers; there getting popular within the the UK for not particularly good reasons lol 😹
Learned a lot this video. Thanks a lot brother.
My pleasure 🙏
I just bought this jacket at uniqlo malaysia.. and it cost RM399.. (after less)
Anyway thanks for the video...
The review is awesome and good 💯
Thanks for watching!

Good eye! Though I still can't feel the difference in mobility heh
@@subtlesartorialist I think the difference is marginal but sounds fancy lol
Great video! Any idea how this compares to the Uniqlo Hybrid Down 3D cut parka?
imo the less padded look of the hybrid is more stylish but less packable. Also has more pockets if that's important to you.

Merry Christmas
Thanks, merry Christmas to you too, have a great day!!
How do you tighten the hoodie straps on this jacket? Pleasee
There's a strap that can be pulled
I’m going somewhere with 0-5°c, if I were to wear just 1 layer inside, would you recommend this down jacket?
Can't say for sure cuz it depends on the wind conditions, your body's cold tolerance, the activity you'll be doing, how thick/warm your inner layer is, etc.
The general advice is to wear a moisture wicking base layer (polyester/synthetics or merino wool), an insulation layer (wool, fleece etc) and finally a windproof/waterproof outer layer (this jacket). Hope this helps!
woah what pants are you wearing in the video? theyre amazing
Thanks, they're from Collaro
Yes
???
Hi What are your thoughts on the other puffer jackets that Uniqlo offers? E.g. Powder soft down jacket, Ultra light down jacket
Didn't try the others so I can't comment much, but I like how the seamless down jacket is right in the middle in terms of warmth, weight and style.
Style aside, really depends on the features you need and the temperature you're in. For example, go for the hybrid down if you need exterior pockets, the ultra light down if your other layers are already solid and have less need for a super warm jacket etc.
Too bad I don't live in a winter climate, otherwise I'll be reviewing all those haha.
Happy Christmas!!! I’m looking to buy one like this. Could I ask your down jacket size (S) is US size or SG size?
Thanks, same to you. It's JP (same as SG), also I'm 165cm for reference
Im 5’6 and 54kg would a size Small or extra small fit me?
I'd go with an S if you intend to layer it over chunkier tops. Otherwise an XS is better over thinner layers. Best to refer to Uniqlo's size chart, hope that helps!

Id be in Takayama for 2-3 day and the rest in Kyoto,tokyo and Osaka
I guess I just bought them there in case it get cold
Just wear lighter layers underneath I guess, have a great trip!
I’m 5,6 70kg what size do you recommend
Probably S or M depending on your chest, but best to refer to Uniqlo's size chart
@@subtlesartorialist so do you think xs would be too small
Yeah probably
what is your weight and height? Was size small perfect fit for your size?
55kg, 1.65m. S fits better over chunkier layers, XS for thinner layers, although the difference is small tbh.
@@subtlesartorialist I am 173cm 64kg, but idk if I should go with S or M. If I like tight fit would S be okay>?
Wouldn't recommend tight fits for winter gear as it'll constrict your blood flow and make you colder. M sounds about right for your height, but best to try it in store.
Hello, may I ask the weight of this parka? Thanks
Hard to give an exact number, but according to the Uniqlo chart it's midweight compared to their other down jackets.
Thank you so much!
is this warm enough / practical for skiing?
The puffiness might restrict your movements, and will feel stuffy if you're doing strenuous activities. I'd lean towards fleece/wool layers instead.
i’m 5’9, what is the recommended size i should go for?
Probably an S or M, best to check the measurements on Uniqlo's website
Do you think it’s a good jacket for skiing?

No
When are you going skiing ?
Whats the drawstring user for ( the one on the bottom inside )
Helps to prevent wind from entering
