Incredible Mid Layer

By Thomas Baron Ranked #50 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets February 23, 2009

Purchased this as an alternative to my heavy-weight TNF Windwall fleece. It is easily as warm, but is less bulky, weighs nothing and packs to the size of a tennis ball. I layer it over a lightweight shirt and under my soft shell. It has kept me comfortably warm sitting on summits at sub-zero temperatures in heavy wind. I'm 5'10" 165lbs and ordered a medium. Fit is a little baggier than I was expecting, but torso and sleeve length are both long enough to retain coverage during high reaches. As an "ultralight" garment, you have to accept the decreased durability. I'm cautious to wear it as my outer-most layer, and the collar lining is showing wear. That being said, I would highly recommend it.
