I have bought the above used (worn 4 times) jacket. I have since doing so been informed that there are fakes. And while the middle aged gentleman seems plausible enough I fear he himself was swindeled delete prior to selling on to me.
does anyone have any knowledge of these jackets and can you advise if it is real.....
thank you

Fake, you can tell by the poor embroidery.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Can't confirm from those pics whether it is fake or not. I would be wary of buying anything that is commonly (or even occasionally!) faked from Ebay. Labels look reasonable though but I have nothing to compare it to. It definately isn't a recent McMurdo parka as they dont have exposed poppers on the pockets etc as that one does as I recall.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

This. Going back to 2014, the poppers weren't exposed, and the term "HyVent" became "DryVent" a few years back too.
Stylewise - around the pocket construction, poppers, stitching etc, it does looks like my TNF Decagon jacket which dates from about 2010-11, and it'll be coming out in service again this year.

You'll need to Register first of course.

Unless you have a good reason to think it's a fake then I'd say the chances are it's real.The seller looks genuine and the stuff he's selling is used rather than new.
Just because there might be fakes around doesn't mean this one is.
