In short
Good for
- Cold starts and chilly camp evenings as a light layer
- A light hooded spare layer to carry on hill days
- Mid layer under a waterproof shell
Strengths
- Hooded 650 fill power recycled down jacket from a UK maker with its own repair stations
- 419 g in size M, including 156 g of insulation
- Recycled nylon outer and lining, PFC-free DWR and a 3-year Alpine Bond guarantee
- Articulated arms, adjustable under-helmet hood, two hand, two internal dump and one chest pocket
Weaknesses
- Alpkit says the PFC-free DWR copes with light showers and snow flurries, so wear a shell in steady rain
- Alpkit says washing and re-waterproofing helps the down puff up and work better in damp conditions
- Alpkit describes a slim, active fit made to layer under a shell: check the size guide before ordering
