    It’s amazing how much companies spend on marketing yet there is never any clear or concise information unless you have a bachelor’s in textile manufacturing. Chris, you’re doing outstanding work. Thank you for everything.

    They should just call this the Atom SV lol. I wish they put a tougher outer fabric on this like a 40D. Still, this being only $100 more than the Atom AR makes it such a steal in my opinion.

    • @meandmyjackets
      @meandmyjackets  Рік тому

      Agreed. But I guess the thinner fabric packs down better... And a bit lighter

      They stopped making the Atom SV. I have one, just patched a hole in it. Its so warm and nice. Fleece lined up by the face part of the zipper for comfort. And its 100g insulation everywhere including the arms, which I love. The AR has like 120 body and 80 arms or something like that and I didn't like it as much as my SV. Definitely a warm jacket but now that mine is old and used its not as warm as it once was. But I can throw this on in 18*F over my work clothes and be outside for a minute. Longer and I would want my Ceres SV. cheers

    Nice review. I got my timelapse color size Large in December. SV has coreloft continuous, which is basically more durable version of coreloft. So SV is relatively affordable, huge, very warm man-made insulated jacket with two-way zipper and is totally windproof with two huge dump pockets inside and a sizable chest pocket. Basicly SV is among the best deals for a heavy duty winter jacket I’ve seen for years.
    The lighter version FL is already a legendary for it’s intended uses, but the high quality of SV still surprised me a lot.

    • @meandmyjackets
      @meandmyjackets  Рік тому +1

      For my everyday use, I'm glad that I down-sized. It's perfect for me, as the intended use is as a belay jacket, and I just use it as a winter jacket in really cold, windy conditions.

    As someone who is interested in this jacket to spend some time (week at a time in winter) in the mountains I look to these types of videos for info and details. The sizing and layering is very helpful; butI would also like to see details like are the pockets fleece lined, all of them (chest - internal)? How large are the drop pockets and what can fit? Is the chin/neck area fleece lined? How adjustable is the jacket and hood-demonstrate, how small does it stuff down too (demonstrate)...Just some input from a user who spends some time in the mountains in winter and relies on videos like yours. Keep up the good work.

    • @meandmyjackets
      @meandmyjackets  Рік тому

      Thank you for the input. I appreciate your advise. I do talk about most of what you are asking for, showing pictures of the fleece lined pockets, opening up the jacket to show the dump pockets, I put the hood on, and explained the adjustment points, showed the stuff sack in the pocket to stuff the jacket in, etc. I do try to show as much as possible, but sometimes it's hard to really go into depth and spend a lot of time on everything, because the videos would be really long. Most of my videos are long as it is (20-30 minutes), and people loose interest sometimes after 5-10 minutes, so it's a fine line. I try to be as thorough as I can without making it too long.
      I do hope that the video helped you out. Thank you again for your input.

    i love when people show the sizing of things right there in front of you
    i am dead on Arcs M size regular cut 40 35 40 , 34 arm
    i took the Medium and was shocked that it was roomy enough
    to go over my M baselayer, M gamma softshell and L alpha SV
    yes it is fitting well at that point and even like a soft hug
    i am not restricted, nothing bulges, harness fits well and the armlength covers everything
    its freaking roomy, take that into account when u buy one lol

    Thinking about following your sizing choice in L as well.

    • @meandmyjackets
      @meandmyjackets  7 місяців тому

      Hi, I have not tried the DAS Parka yet, just the DAS Light. But I do own the Nuclei SV. From the specs, the Nuclei seems to have a bit more insulation in the body, but not much. They are both very similar, I should do a video to compare them. 🙂 The Nuclei SV is very warm and windproof, but very lightweight for it's warmth. The DAS light and the Nuclei FL were very similar as well. All of these jackets were designed for the same purpose. Super warm, lightweight Belay jackets.

      I'm not sure how to measure that, but I will tell you that the jacket does run big. I sized down, and it fits me great. It is a belay jacket, meant to be worn over many warm layers, so it is sized larger than normal.

    • @meandmyjackets
      @meandmyjackets  8 місяців тому

      I have not tried the Thorium SV yet, but I do know what it's about. It should be warmer than the regular Thorium, but I can't say for sure as to how much warmer. I do own both the regular Thorium and the Nuclei SV, and I can say that the Nuclei SV is the warmest of the two. It has 180 gsm of coreloft insulation, and a windproof face fabric. It's very warm! I honestly don't think that the Thorium SV is going to be quite as warm, but the extra money that the Thorium costs is most likely due to the Down, as well as the Goretex Infinium. The Thorium SV has 140gsm synthetic insulation is areas prone to moisture, which is heavier thatn the regular thorium, but you don't want to wear the thorium in wet conditions. The Nuclei can take more moisture, and still keep you warm. @@pojkken7
