  • In this video I check out and review the Outdoor Vitals Nova Pro Jacket. This is the warmest jacket Outdoor vitals makes. It has a ton of cool features and comes in at a really good value compare to other similar jackets.

    Thank you, just got this jacket and returned my hood less nano puff. Not only was it cheaper with the membership, just got a free spoon from outdoor vitals. I wish I’ve known about this jacket, I’ve would have saved so much money on jackets.

    I'd forgotten about the feature of packing the jacket into the left pocket. I bought mine in Smoke color back in February 2023 & especially like the hood adjustability, the zero stitch outer fabric & the thumb holes at the end of sleeves. I normally wear my Marmot Minimalist Gore-Tex jacket over the NovaPro as a windbreaker/rain jacket.

      Is the smoke color more tan than grey it’s hard to tell from the pics

      @@Hoytbuff Oxidized Silver is what the color looks like to me rather than smoke or grey.
      My "small" jacket weighed 13.6oz, it should have weighed 15oz. I returned it as a Warranty claim (manufacturing defect). It is now in the hands of OV. I'm waiting for their decision.
      If you buy one weigh it to see if it weights what it's supposed to weigh. I claimed my didn't have enough down stuffed into it when manufactured.
      It's probably a good idea to weigh any Down Filled jacket at the time you open the package in an effort to determine if it's been filled with as much DOWN as advertised.

    I wore this jacket last Thanksgiving in Montana. Decided to see how it would do and went for a walk in a heavy wet snowstorm. I was really impressed after not feeling any cold water seep into my layers underneath. The jacket was wet, but still had loft. And it dried very quickly.

    With ounce counting and performance, do you recommend this jacket? If not, what other down UL jackets do you recommend?

    • @BackcountryRenegade
      @BackcountryRenegade  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      yes i do but more so for colder conditions as a winter jacket. This is too much of a jacket for summer ultralight backpacking
