Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.
Are you Sure?
Our Rewards Program is completely FREE and easy to use.
By opting out, you forfeit all the Moosejaw Rewards Dollars your currently have in your account, which is basically throwing away free money. What would your grandmother say about that? If you're 100% sure, please click "OptOut" below.
Earn 10% back on all full-priced purchases on Moosejaw.com or at our shops (2.5% for discounted items).
The program is FREE. Just register and join during the checkout process. So Easy.
After joining the program, you'll receive your MJ$ as soon as your order ships. Then the next time you shop at Moosejaw, you can redeem those MJ$ to get awesome gear for way less.

Special order items take longer to ship
We want to make extra-sure you realize that you've added a special order item to your cart. These items take a little longer to get to you because we have to order from the manufacturer first.

Great Jacket, light and warm! Runs slightly big if not layering consistentlyQuite long but with the synch cords it can ride at your waist and lock in warmth. It is light, warm and spacious. You can just not use the thumb loops, if I'm not wearing gloves or don't want them I push them back into the sleeve. I am 170 and 5'9" medium was a bit large on me but I like the roomy fit for layers and mobility. Durability of the zipper and fabric after using outdoors is TBD. But all feels solid so far. Wish the zipper was larger and beefier (would take the extra grams for the durability and ease)

PerfectI bought this for a Baker/Rainier trip. Traditionally, I hate thumb loops. I don't use them on sun shirts, and I despise them on fleece jackets. However the design of the cuff on this jacket along with the thumb hole is perfect. I slide my arms into the sleeves and my hands just seem to naturally find the dumb holes, and I don't even notice. I wore the jacket every night on Baker and Rainier and stayed toasty warm. It was even the perfect pillow packed up in a stuff sack at night.

6000 Meter JacketThe Nilas jacket is perfect as an outer layer. The quality of the jacket is awesome as well as it’s wind breaking ability. Paired with a mid layer jacket, the Nillas jacket will take you to 10F (Chimborazo for me)

Great Down JacketI bought this jacket for a trip to Alaska to see the Aurora Borealis. It has two deep external side zippered pockets and 2 inside chest pockets. It zips up the front all the way up to my nose, while the hood covers my head well. The only weak point of the jacket is a flimsy zipper pull in the front. I'm 5'8" and weigh 150lb - the medium fits me perfectly.

Great in Vermont for WinterI bought for Rainier climb which ended at Disappointment Cleaver. Have had many chances to wear in Vermont (my home) this winter. It is my go to jacket for extreme cold days. Super soft and warm and comfy. Love the thumb hole cuffs as well as the stuff sack that came with jacket. Very durable shell material.

Must-have for the coldest summits and belaysLike a warm cocoon on the coldest days, this parka is a life saver when it gets bitter cold. I have used this for alpine ascents at altitude and at never-ending ice climbing belays in New England, and it has not let me down. For the warmth, it packs small and light. Durability seems good, even around ice screws and pickets. It hasn't seen much precip, but seems to shed moisture well. My climbing partners are jealous of the cozy cuffs. The two-way zip is key for belaying, and it had plenty of storage space for a water bottle or gloves. I ordered my normal size and have no problem fitting it over multiple layers.
what is the difference between "state orange" and "state orange 842"
Asked by: TomK
Hello there and thanks for a great question.
State Orange 842 is the new and Improved orange for 2021. Regular state orange is a dumb old 2020 orange. That's pretty much it, the colors themselves are very similar, it boils down to an age difference.
Hope this helps

how is this jacket compared to TNF L6 cloud? this shows 850 vs 800 power down, but TNF cloud looks a lot more puffier and warmer
Asked by: J_Nap
Hey there, thanks for your question.
Both of these jackets are using comparable down, once your above 800, most people cant feel any difference. The noticeable difference comes from how much down is actually used. The TNF L6 cloud is a belay parka so it's designed for standing still in freezing temperatures, after working up a sweat. Therefore, the jacket is overstuffed with insulation making it incredibly warm. The downside however is that it's also going to be much heavier and bulkier than a normal down puffy.
This Mountain Hardwear Nilas Jacket doesn't have quiet as much down but they are a bit more strategic with the down placement making this jacket fit and breathe better for more active pursuits.
I hope this helps!

Is this real duck down?
Asked by: exitleft
Great question! YES, the insulation is real goose down. There is 215 grams of 90% goose down and 10% goose feather :)
