What's the fleece weight/warmth of this jacket? I see it's Gore Windstopper Fleece, but is that comparable to 100, 200, 300 weight? And how does this jacket compare to the Mountain Hardware Windstopper or TNF Denali Wind Pro (or other similar fleece)?
Thanks

I would compare this jacket to a 200 weight fleece. Compared to the Denali Wind Pro, the Pamir is lighter (Denali is 300 weight). Another big difference is that Winderstopper is a total windblocking laminate, while the Wind Pro fabic is not - it blocks about 4 times more wind than traditional fleece. Bottom line: Pamir: more versatile weight, more weather resistance Denali Wind Pro: Warmer, more breathable, heavier
