A very light down jacket that packs into a small space (its own chest pocket). Surprisingly warm. Ok hood. Pockets (without zippers or snaps) warm your hands well. Serves as a break jacket or additional insulation under the shell jacket / softshell. The surface material withstands light rain for some time. This jacket is almost invariably in your backpack when I go on a trip. My dimensions 185/75 and M-size is just right.
