Montane have recently updated all their down products with HyperDry ECO. This flurocarbon-free down exhibits an optimal blend of water resistance, fill power, durability, cleanliness and washability while diminishing it's impact on the environment.

This new version actually works out a little lighter than before, which is great considering it was a pretty lightweight jacket to start with, and it packs down just as small as before. Style wise they haven't changed much but I would say that's due to the fact it doesn't really need changing.

The Featherlite Micro is great for winter hiking and for everyday use like walking the dog. If you love the jacket but wish it had a hood to keep your lugs warm then don't fret, the Featherlite Down Jacket is the hooded version. It doesn't add much more in weight and will keep your head feeling snug and warm.
