Our Verdict
We like the adjustable waist cord in addition to the usual one in the hem, gives a bit extra control over venting. A remarkable warmth to weight ratio. The cuffs are semi-elasticated with velcro closure.
There is an internal chest pocket and two deep handwarmer pockets.
The waterproof stuffsack is a good idea but hey, buy a 4 Litre Sea to Summit Drybag and save some weight. Read the review of the previous model below - technically this 2011 version is identical - its only the styling thats changed.

- As with all MONTANE® clothing, FREEFLOW® fabric contains a Durable Water Repellency (DWR) as the first barrier to keeping you dry. Clean your garment in order to maintain this.
- Down clothing ideally needs to be handwashed with care.
- Wash in a mild soap in warm water 40C/110F. MONTANE® recommends Nikwax Tec Wash.
- DO NOT use fabric softeners, bleach or liquid detergent.
- Rinse the product thoroughly after washing to remove any soap traces.
- You must dry the product carefully in a tumble drier on a cool setting. Check regularly that the product is drying well and turn inside out. Never dry clean.
- It will take some time to dry a down product thoroughly, even if the outer fabric is dry the down may not be.
- MONTANE® recommends a professional cleaning service if in any doubt.
