MontBell Alpine Light Down Jacket - Men's

Item #MTB0071 | 67 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Where's the Parka version?

By Backcountry.com Employee September 16, 2008

This is really the best down piece MontBell makes, since it's just a bit tougher than the UL, but warmer and very close in weight. That said...I have the Parka, with the insulated hood, and I would recommend it over the hood-less Jacket (thus the 4 stars out of 5). There is nothing like pulling it out of my pack at the end of a ski tour, when I am waiting for someone to grab a car from Big Cottonwood. It fits easily under my hardshell, and stretches over my softshell. Comes with its own little stuff sack too.
