Yes, Thermocool is Peak's proprietary version of Primaloft. I'm not sure of the exact amount/weight of insulation in the Peak Performance Purden; however, having worn these a few times (and liked them) I'd say that they have somewhere around 250-300 grams of insulation on the back of the hand and roughly half that on the palm. These have a great feel and fit for being a warm ski glove - definitely not bulky feeling in my opinion.
