Attribute deep dive

We break down what drove each score so you can weigh trade-offs.

Quality Analysis 90/100

This parka is crafted from PERTEX®, a two-layer, water-resistant nylon, indicating excellent resistance to the elements. The use of VELCRO® and a two-way zip fastening suggests robust closures, while the "Mid-weight" fabric provides a good balance of protection and comfort.

Comfort Assessment 70/100

This parka offers a relaxed fit with adjustable drawcords at the hem and hood, allowing you to customize the fit for personal comfort. However, the mid-weight, non-stretchy fabric might feel less adaptable than garments with stretch.

Sustainability Impact 60/100

This parka is crafted from 100% nylon, a conventional fossil-fuel synthetic, and the text does not indicate any recycled content, which impacts its sustainability score.
