Very light and comfortable. Works
Very light and comfortable. Works well and the hood elastic and wide brim are clever touches. I sized up to XL as I felt the L was a bit too snug to layer much beneath, though I’m normally L in many other brands. L did fit me but I prefer a slightly roomier fit.

Featherweight wind stopper
This jacket is so light and packs down to something the size of an apple and yet blocks the wind brilliantly. Perfect for throwing on when you need to take the edge off the weather but theirs no rain and a hard shell would be sweaty overkill. It's tiny size also means you can always have it in your pack with virtually no weight penalty.

This is a cracking windproof!
This is a cracking windproof! Nice and light, decent zip pockets and a good hood. Packs super small in its own stuff sack. A tiny carabiner would be nice to attach to a belt loop when not wearing, but most people will have one to assign. My wife loves hers too. A must for windy top-outs.

Light, comfortable and packs down small
Really nice jacket, often put it on and completely forget I’m wearing it. Packs absolutely tiny so I’ve just been taking it everywhere. Even seems to keep me fairly dry in showers! Lovely to have on you for a windy belay or climb.

Great bit of kit, very
Great bit of kit, very light and does a good job of keeping the wind and rain out. It can get a bit sweaty in there, but it's an essential top layer for me.

Vital 2.0
Fit is more roomy so you can fit a light fleece under it now without feeling constricted. The stuff sack is now seperate which is great as i never use them.
