Berghaus lists 0.660 kg (660 g), in the 600-799 g band. Its page gives no size, so this may not be the men's M weight. GO Outdoors gives no weight for its Ewden listing.
In short
Good for
- Everyday and cold-weather walking, as a warm synthetic layer over a base layer or fleece
- Camp and stops in damp conditions: synthetic Hydroloft fill, which Berghaus says doesn't absorb moisture
- Not a lightweight carry: 660 g is heavier than most belay jackets
Strengths
- Synthetic Hydroloft insulation, with an adjustable hood and hem (Berghaus)
- Berghaus says Hydroloft keeps its loft when damp, but it publishes no test of this
- Internal neck protection and elasticated cuffs (GO Outdoors' description)
- Covered by Berghaus's Repairhaus repair service
Weaknesses
- 660 g with no size given, in the 600-799 g band, so a heavier carry
- Warmth, damp performance and durability aren't scored: no independent test of this jacket found yet
- No packed size, fill weight or fabric denier published
