By Ranked #1427 - Men's Ski Jackets January 28, 2009

What is the weight of the Primaloft insulation in this jacket? (In oz. sq/yd or grams)Actual sleeve length size large, XL?Room for layering in the sleeves?.... they look narrow.I tried calling and emailing MH about this, but I get either voice mail(no call backs), or email(they don't reply to emails). Hmmm, why bother having "customer service" then? LOL! They are not so customer friendly as say Marmot, who is very easy to get a hold of. In this case, a potential sale lost.

Sorry for your hassles getting in touch with Mountain Hardwear. It is usually not that difficult. We need to improve apparently and this will be brought up with the cservice department pronto! I will get back to you here with the answers to your questions. Thanks!--------------------------Here's the rest of the answer: The Vinson uses 100g Primaloft PL-1 in body, sleeves, and hood. No other gram wt is used in the jacket. The sleeve length on XL is 38" and there is plenty of room to layer underneath. Again, sorry for your hassles and I hope this answers your questions.
