The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Gonzo Men by Valandre is a down jacket designed for temperatures of -5/-8°C, inspired by the Troll model for extreme cold. It is filled with 150 grams (depending on the size) of excellent white European goose down, 800+ cuin EU standard. The jacket has 48 anatomical compartments to partition the down. It is made with Valandre's flagship Japanese fabric, a water-repellent Asahi-Kasei, 50 g/m² on the outside and 40.8 g/m² on the inside.
The jacket has two large zipped pockets on the outside and one pocket on the inside. The anatomically shaped hood can be adjusted with a drawstring and there is a second drawstring at the bottom of the jacket. The zip is equipped with a siding to avoid discomfort and a cold feeling on the chin. A multi-point reinforcement along the entire length of the zip prevents the slider from getting caught in the fabric. On the top, it rises to the level of the chin for optimal protection and comfort. An elastic band at the wrists ensures that the cold air does not get in.
The Gonzo Men folds into a compression pocket integrated into the jacket.
