Goes well with hot sauce

Ranked #508 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
January 21, 2011
This jacket lives in the top of my pack while ski touring, and I pull it out anytime I stop to wait for buddies, dig a pit, drink some coffee or make a burrito. It's pretty warm and crazy light.
I'm 5'8 130 lbs and got a medium. This size is something of a miracle - it layers perfectly both underneath and on top of my hardshell, which is a size small. Don't ask me how it works, ask the clever folks who designed this jacket.
Durability-wise, I've been impressed. Given its weight, this is obviously not a burly jacket, and you should take care moving through brush. That said, I've snagged it a hundred times and grimaced, thinking I'd have a torn jacket, but still haven't noticed any rips or tears.
Buy this jacket but keep your eye on your sneaky roommates, 'cause they'll definitely try to steal it from you.
