I picked one of these up to play around with a bit ("play around" = wear very gingerly with tags on). I'm considering it as a potential replacement for my BC Hadron Anorak for an upcoming PCT thru for a few reasons- mainly fit, form factor (I feel a lot more sealed up in this jacket), and I'm starting to get fed up with the anorak-style layout.

Just curious if anyone has/likes/dislikes these- it's hard to find a lot of hands-on reviews, etc of the jacket here or elsewhere online (although a product name consisting entirely of semi-generic terms probably isn't helping my efforts to do a search.)

My initial impressions are very positive, although it does seem like it should have a bit more loft based on the specs (120g of 800FP treated duck down).

ha, funny I just ordered both the Hadron and the SD. The Hadron wins the SD goes back. All about the fit, which is highly personal of course.

The hood on the SD is great. Wish the Hadron had a way to snug the hood and hydrophobic down. But i could comfortably sleep in the Hadron, but not the SD.

If it fits you well I'd go with it.
