I bought this for Everest Base Camp Hike. It performed incredibly well in below freezing temps and bitterly wind. I own Patagonia Nano and Arcteryx Nuclei. The warmth of this jacket is way better then Nano but tad below Nuclei. But its incredibly light and packable. Note it does not pack in itself in its pocket like some jackets do, you need to use the pouch it comes with. When it comes to breathability it is not as breathable as Patagonia nano but more breathable them Nuclei. Material does look bit fragile but has not suffered any tear from my extensive use of it so far.
This is a wild piece. It weighs next to nothing but is as warm or warmer than my Patagonia Down Hoody. Along with the weight, or lack thereof, it packs down so small. I have been bringing it on every outing and will probably do so throughout the summer (I'm in Colorado so getting stranded on a peak could leave you needing warmth). It is a thin material, but I have not had any issues yet with it. If you are someone that is just hard on gear, maybe pass. But know that you are the problem and not the piece. haha
Another brilliant piece by Rab. My size Small comes in right at 8.0 oz. Fits my 150#/5'10" body well. Room for a layer underneath. Reasonable moisture resistance, especially with synthetic insulation in high wear areas (cuffs and sides of hood). Warm, and low profile hood is functional. Sleeves stay up when needed and cuffs seal out drafts. Would love some internal drop pockets.
I've had this jacket for a couple of weeks now and it has become my go to jacket. Whether i go on errands, skiing, or snowshoeing it has been spot on. Just the right amount of warmth when you are active outside. I've been comfortable snowshoeing at 35°F with this jacket on. Absolutely love it. I'm 6'2 170 lbs and the large fits perfect
Amazing jacket. Packable small, silly light yet warm. Adds several degrees to a sleeping bag to, esp with the hood. The different type of filling on shoulders and contact points are a brilliant idea.
This jacket is fantastic as a stand alone coat, a mid layer or as a smart jacket to wear to work, I love it!
A really good looking jacket … light and comfortable to wear but really warm
