    Danny Innamorati's review

    Lightweight, 800 fill warmth and well fitting, this is my favorite mid-weight puffy jacket. I use this on early mornings and when the sun goes down, and as a belay jacket on crisp winter days in the desert. As well as on a glacier moving in cold weather.

    Crewing ultras usually involves way more standing around in weird weather than people expect. Even races that are brutally hot during the day can become freezing overnight once fatigue sets in. A giant puffy jacket is one of those things that seems unnecessary until you desperately need it. Pro tip: Bring the warmer jacket. You will not regret having too many layers at 3 a.m.
