I'm wondering if this is the norm with the Alpine Light Down Paraka I just ordered or if I have a severely under filled jacket. The arms, the last two segments in particular, appear to have virtually no down in them.
In comparison to the body baffled segments, the last two segments of the arms appear to only have down filling MAYBE 1/4 of the round of he arm. Even after 48 hours of time for it to re-loft. My Marmot Zeus seems as if it's filled twice as much in comparison, and it is only supposed to have 3.5oz of down vs. the 4.3oz that should be in this. Granted this jacket has a hood and the Zues does not, but I feel that the difference in fill should at least leave me with a similar loft in the arms. I'm wondering if anyone else that owns this jacket could give me some insight as to if I just have a poorly produced jacket? Does Mont-bell tend to put more of their down in the body?
TIA!
