robpatterson5 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Thought I'd also post this here. I was wondering if anyone here any experience this jacket? I'm looking at it to replace my Micropuff pullover for spring to fall alpine, and really like the weight/features. I'm wondering about how warm it is though, has anyone here used it? I'm looking for a synthetic hoody that weighs less then 20oz, and inexpensive is good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrogdortheBurninator Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 It is hands down my favorite jacket ever now. I use it pretty extensively ice climbing, alpine climbing and skiing since maybe october. I am very impressed with the warmth for the weight (i think the hood is a big factor here). I used it in february on colchuck with only a light softshell and silkweight shirt, and stayed warm enough for a day trip. I also used it in Cody with temps in the teens, and again stayed warm enough. For shorter ice cragging routes, I still take a heavier Feathered friends volant jacket, but the fraction is basically my go to jacket for everything else.
