Here's what other sites are saying:

From Patagonia.com:
"There's much to see 14,000 feet up at the Chasm View bivy: a vertigo-inducing panorama of the Diamond and alpenglow over the Rockies. There's also chilly air in any season, and that's where our Down Sweater comes in. It delivers minimal weight, superb compressibility and high-loft warmth. The ripstop shell (1.4-oz 22-denier) with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish does more than look sharp: It's tear-resistant and windproof and made from 100% all-recycled polyester. Details include top-quality 800-fill-power goose down, a quilted-through construction, two exterior zippered pockets, a stretch-mesh interior chest pocket that doubles as a zippered stuff sack and a carabiner clip-in loop. Drawcord hem."

From Campmor:
"Ultralight, highly compressible down insulation for cold mountain pursuits, brought to you by the Patagonia Down Sweater. Superlight, windproof and water-resistant 22 denier polyester (100% recycled) mini-ripstop shell has high tear-strength. DWR finish. 800 fill power premium European goose down insulation. Quilted construction stabilizes the high-quality down. DWR-coated center front zipper. Two hand warmer pockets with DWR-coated zippers. One inside zippered stretch-mesh pocket doubles as a stuff sack with carabiner clip-in loop. Nylon-bound elastic cuffs. Drawcord hem. Regular fit. Avg. wt. 12.4 oz."

From Backcountry.com:
"Patagonia made the 10-ounce Men's Down Sweater for alpinists, ice climbers, and backcountry skiers who need insulation that weighs as little as possible. Although the Down Sweater weighs less than most fleece jackets, its 800-fill down insulation provides far more warmth. The ultralight DWR-coated 22D polyester shell protects the insulation from moisture. This Patagonia jacket packs so small that it fits in its own interior pocket, which makes it a great choice for climbs where pack size must remain minimal."

"I picked this up on a backpacking web board from another user who, at 6'5", was just too tall for this jacket in XL.

Pros: it is super-light - just over 12 oz, highly compressible and very warm for the weight. It makes a superb insulation layer under a shell for temps down into the single digits with decent base layers underneath."
