i've been looking for a down jacket for a while and this one is pretty sick but i can't find anywhere that i can actually buy it except for the UK because you can't get it off of their website and they don't have any more catalogues... if anyone has any ideas that would be great

okay. i work at the helly store at flatirons and my fiancee owns jibij. so listen up. the pollard puffy is real sick and a good price. part of the reason why the price is so good is because all of their helly tech stuff is only 3000 mm for waterproofing, which is good, but not great. all of siver's stuff is also 3000 mm. you'd be fine in it for co because our snow is so dry and it hardly rains in the winter. the pollard puffy also has elastic on the back of the shoulders giving more freedom of movement for grabs and such. helly is all about layering so even though this jacket is down, you're gonna want to buy a few other layers to put under it. all of their jackets are pretty thin because they want you to buy a 'base layer' and a 'thermal layer.' makes sense but also kind of sounds like a marketing gimmick. their lifa stuff is pretty awesome though. the pollard also looks like it runs kind of small. i could probably wear a mens small and i'm 5'1''. sweet jacket though. if you're in colorado def check out jibij as well. it's in boulder on 28th and bluff. josh carries dakine, orage, orage masters, dna, siver, look bindings, line (including the binding), armada, liberty, some k2, purl wax, anon, electric, spy, and red helmets. we also have a ton of ski movies for sale and to watch on our huge tv and comfy couch. the store also has every freeskier ever printed.
