I purchased the MH Beryllium pro-shell jacket in a (large) size. I want a down, or other insulated jacket to serve as my warmth. I am a male mountaineer at 6 feet, 170 lbs. Bulky outerwear is out of the question. What "Mountain Hardwear product need I purchase? This jacket needs to be my warmth under the shell. Thanks for your help!

Both the Down Sweater and the Compressor layer great, but neither will be as warm as the Phantom. I owned a Down Sweater, but got rid of it to get a Phantom instead. My R2 provides a lot of warmth under my shell, as does my Siphon Primaloft. If you want serious warmth, go with the Phantom

If it must be MH, the Compressor jacket is a solid synthetic insulator that's athletically-cut, lightweight, and packs down well. However, I would suggest a down sweater along the lines of the Patagonia Down Sweater of one of Montbell's ultralight or extremely light. These are much more comfortable and versatile for layering, and don't sacrifice a ton of warmth because of the high quality down they employ
