Stoic Microlith Softshell Pant - Men's

March 15, 2011

Given the apparent lack of a fly, ankle zips/shock cord, and 4 or 5 hand warmer pockets, I'd say the weight difference has little to do with fabric weight, ie, they would be very comparable in terms of warmth and whatnot.

Answer to: "How does this jacket compare to the Lyngen CLO 100- both in terms"

Norrøna Lyngen Lightweight Down Jacket - Men's

March 7, 2011

From experience with light weight down sweaters and 100 weight synth insulation, this will be warmer than the clo, and more comfortable across a larger range of temperatures. Given its construction and materials (down), it won't drape, instead puffing around you.

Answer to: "Can anyone compare this jacket to the Arcteryx Atom LT jacket?"

Stoic Luft Insulated Sweater - Men's

January 24, 2011

I'd say it is marginally warmer than the atom LT. The face fabric is soft, with a smooth hand, micro ripstop. Pretty standard. I can compress my medium down to around the size of a nalgene, would go smaller in a stuff sack.

As for warmth, I wore a t-shirt, 100 weight fleece, and this guy walking 2 miles to the post office a few days ago when it was 7 degrees out, with windchill to -10ish. I was, if anything, too warm. Caveat, my body runs pretty warm, but this sweater works.

Marmot Vars Hooded Fleece Jacket - Men's

January 23, 2011

Decent wind resistance, on par with a heavyweight cotton hoody. Water resistance is low, it seems to have a dwr treatment, so light drops will suspend on the fabric surface, but it soaks through very quickly.

Excellent

Stoic Merino Composite 230 1/4 Zip Top - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 2, 2010

Has the same fit as the merino bliss shirt, just without the thumb loops, great for us taller people. Merino inner has a terrycloth like finish, very soft, with no itch factor. The nylon face has a really nice hand, and feels durable. It is warm with a little wind resistance, but still very breathable. Excellent heavier base layer.

small caveat, I do have low volume feet, so it might not hold true for the fat footed

Great For Cold Weather

Marmot Moran Softshell Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 March 9, 2010

Great looking jacket, cut fairly long, medium fits length wise, if a little loose on me(6'3", 155), but I'm a skinny bastard.

The windbloc really works, I use it for biking to class in the midwest, never feel the wind at all.

It breathes better than my windstopper sharp point, despite its lack of pitzips, and is almost as warm.

Don't expect to wear this in high output activities if its over 40 or so though, you will over heat, even with just a light t-shirt
