"This is a great jacket, extremely light and windproof due to the Gore Windstopper laminate. I traded the Marmot Gravity Jacket for this one, and the only regret is the warmth factor. It's not as warm as the Gravity Jacket, but quite a bit lighter."

"This is an older model but for the price and all the options it was a no brainer. It fits my longer arms great and fits nicely with a harness on. I haven't tried it in a downpour but has keep me dry and warm with light showers and snow. I've climbed in it and it streches well and has been durable."

"So far I have been very impressed with this jacket. It is incredibly warm for its weight. Mountain Hardwear says it is water resistant and I have no complaints. Of course the Gore WindStopper is incredible. My only complaint is that it has no pitzips, which would increase the versatility. Overall a great jacket."
