Looking for advice on finding a down jacket recommendation. I have used the down jacket indicator but I am trying to match warmth with some of my existing jackets that are not on the indicator.

Warmth Criteria: Not as warm as an old, good condition, Feathered Friends heilos I have, similar (or a little less) in warmth to a new Enlightened Equipment Torrid, or similar in warmth to an old Patagonia R4 Fleece.

Other Criteria: Longer than the hilos in the back,10d or thicker fabric, elastic or closure at sleeves

I am leaning to no hood but am not opposed to a hood

$250 or less ideally $300 is top end but I may be convinced to go above.

I was going to order Montbell and was trying to decide between the Superior or the Light Alpine Jacket. I have some existing points but with their new website and drastic price increases from Japan I am looking for something else. Or I can try a package forwarding service but that works against the savings.

Oh . . . and I am not sticking with the Torrid as I am told by someone that matters that because it doesn't have baffles it looks too much like wearing a sleeping bag. Apparently that is not desirable.

Any advice is welcome and thank in advance.
