MontBell Ultralight Down Inner Jacket - Men's

Item #MTB0118 | 59 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Not quite wide or thick enough for me

By Ranked #235 - Men's Down Jackets November 14, 2006

This truly is ultralight - only 2 oz. of down and 6 oz. overall. For me, that turned out to be a bit less warmth than hoped -- equal to, but not warmer than a sweater or fleece.
My other concern is that my 34" waist felt snug in size Medium. On rechecking, for Montbell, Medium only goes up to waist size 33.
On the bright side, I saw no sign of down leakage, and liked the style and feel.
I replaced this jacket with a North Face Flash, also is size Medium, which solved both concerns, alas for more money.
