| Incredibly versatile. Lightweight. Great features such as chest pocked, reduced bulk at harness line and cuffs, and asymmetric zipper at the neck/chin. The balaclava style hood is a clutch feature for long trips with varied conditions/temperatures/activities. |
| Expensive. The fit is "athletic" so it is cut slim and form-fitting. I recommend trying before you buy or ordering multiple sizes. The "low bulk" material does not hold up well to abrasion. I've had to patch a tiny hole by one of the thumb loops. |
| For reference I am 5' 10", 150#, 38 chest, 30 waist and this is Almost a Perfect fit. I have enough room for a lightweight layer underneath. If the fit is an issue, try the Cloudveil Run Don't Walk Hoody or hoodies made by OR, Mammut, etc. |

Cred: 9 | | Very thin and warm. I really love the design of this jacket. The zipper goes off to the side on your face so that it does not bother your lips. The hoody is great. It acts like a balaclava and works great for regulating your temperature. |

| Comfortable, lightweight, doesn't smell bad after weeks of wear, versatile. |
| Pricey. If you shop around you'll find it for around $100. After wearing it so much and really liking it, I wouldn't mind paying full price. |
| I Think TNF makes something very similar, but I haven't tried it. |

Cred: 188 | | balaclava fit; monkey thumb holes; warm; stretchy athletic fit that breathes; great mid or base layer |
| expensive; abrasion causes holes easily if not careful |
|
Cred: 24 | | Incredibly versatile, I have used it as a light insulation layer, a heavy baselayer and a ninja costume |
| having the hood down while the hood on my rainshell is up can be a little annoying |
