Hi,
Has anyone else got one of these down jackets and have it leak down like nobody's business? It's a bit dissappointing how much it leaks. I wore a microfleece jumper underneath and the jumper was covered in down from the jacket. :-(

Contact Backcountry, that shouldn't happen.
Mine is new this season, but so far it only looses about one plume per overnight, and my use usually includes sleeping in it.
No issues with mine either. But mine is 3(?) years old–so maybe a different generation.

I am 'guessing' so is mine. I bought it off a BPL-er a couple year ago and noticed every time I wore it it would loose a piece of down or two……much like my WM Highlite sleeping bag (ever time I used it). I thought that was a normal loss rate. But wearing the fleece under the Anorak seemed to 'draw' the down out. I should have taken a picture of one night's sleep worth of down stuck to the fleece jumper.
