Mountain Equipment Lightline Down Jacket

The ME Lightline down jacket is aimed at those looking for a down jacket for general mountain use, Alpine climbing and ski touring. This jacket is filled with 316g (size L) of 90/10 pure down offering a fill power of 675+ (EU rating). The hood is attached with poppers so can be easily removed, the hoot also has a wire reinforced peak. The jacket comes equipped with its own stuff sac and has a pack weight of around 770g. There are two hand warmer pockets with zip entry and cuffs are equipped with elastic and one handed Velcro closure adjustment. DriLite loft keeps this jacket wind proof and water resistant (light shower proof).

I have had this jacket since August and have worn it in various conditions (suitable for a down Jacket) and temperatures while walking in high altitude (5,895 meters) and while out doing night photography and have found it to be a very warm jacket. I would say this is an ideal jacket for walking in cold dry conditions or as a backup jacket in your pack to pull out when you reach the summits of hills to keep warm while you take in the views. I purchased this jacket for £100 which in my opinion was £100 well spent.
