Some of this stuff is rated to -60f. Most of the gear is good for the negatives. Fixing to get stocked up:

Anyone have any experience with any of their gear?
The pdf catalog listed on the site is good to really get to know the products.

actually these guys were originally 5 miles from me in Inwood, NY
i have a 1 piece from them thats impervious to cold from when i worked in the produce market but to thick
and stiff to think about riding in...think Carhartt but more durable
everyone in the Hunts Pt meat market wears their quilted stuff
seems they have upped their game and aren't just for the fridge anymore

This may be great clothing but I never believe the rating they give. Negative 60 F.. please!
In most cases warmth is related to thickness...construction plays some role...but it's thickness...If it's thicker it's probably warmer especially if
baffled.
If I were out in -60 F weather- and the nylon on my kite didn't crack from the extreme cold and my hands didn't freeze- I would want down.
Maybe even something like this:
