Improved design
Although i miss the fabric of the previous iterations (pertex) and it looks flimsy-ish, this new model worked wonders for the harsh Andean weather. The no baffles structure is way better, and its warmer than the previous model.

Quality degraded
I have earlier version of this jacket ( there is no front chest pocket) for about 7 years - it was perfect, light, warm, breathable. I bought this past season latest model and material is crap. After very light use there are pills or lint balls on the back of the jacket. Very disappointed

Amazing Hoody/Jacket
Keep you warm and cool. Super lightly, you barely feel it when you have it on you. Totally recommend it. Ordered XL and it fits perfectly.

Great all weather
I only wear this and my northface version doing everything. The jacket keeps you mostly dry in a light rain/heavy rain expect to feel it after a while. But impressed that the jacket doesn't overheat me if the weather starts warming up while I'm out. Super comfy, if I ride my motorcycle its a great under jacket. A little cautious around the arms for short-term wear and tear.

Almost Great
Much to like about this jacket for climbing, but it isn't quite perfect. I'm 6'2"/180 and as with most jackets for me, size M is too tight on the shoulders/chest and size L is a bit too big everywhere else. Between the jacket length, arm length, and stretch, this jacket stays put under a harness better than others I've tried. Hood fits over a helmet too, which is a plus. But the neck is cut a little low and loose, which can let cold air in. And the wind resistance leaves something to be desired -- maybe this is an inherent trade-off given the stretch material.

Nice and warm
My first impression was it was like being in a sleeping bag. I have just used it a few times so far but it has kept me nice and warm.

4.5 stars
This jacket is great! Very warm for how light is, and the stretch makes it very comfortable. Only gripe is that it runs a touch big.
