Berghaus lists 0.540 kg (540 g), in the 450-599 g band. Its page gives no size, so this may not be the men's M weight; its shop data carries 560 g, a shipping weight we don't use. GO Outdoors says approximately 540 g for UK size L; Ultralight Outdoor Gear gives 513 g for a medium (a shop figure, not scored).
