I've been looking at this cirque lite jacket more closely as the emails arrive from SG. They seem to be really proud of it. I really like this piece. I'm a grid fleece junkie and the grid side panels with the insulated parts will go a long in temps change/activity. It's got the huge internal...
Men have said for years 'I'm going hunting' and go spend days with their mistresses. The only thing I can say to that, if you're that easily fooled.. maybe you should find a good guy who plays video games all day and never leaves the house :)
I love my sika ambient.. it's a very light jacket that insulates and punches well above it's weight.
I really want to try to cirque lite but fear it will just be the same midlayer the ambient fills and then I have another midlayer which my heavy fleece layers also fills. I will probably just...
I figured as much. That's the thing about mid/active layers, you have to spend the money, then get out there and work hard in them to see how they perform.
I can wrap up in a breathable puffy/outer layer, then strip down to heavy merino personally. I really go from hot/warm to cold, nothing...
Yeah I threw it in my cart just to see what it would cost with shipping.. SG doesn't really discount anything and I understand that but can't spend $250 on a mid layer at least until we get some feedback on it...
I have a ton of SG gear, 0 chilkoot and 2p tent but can't justify this mid layer...
I'd love to see the thumb hole fleece hand hole/liners in these new mid layers offerings.. just kind of fyi
from another review.. not mine:
Working with Under Armour, I had a lot of input in this piece. They came to me asking what was missing in the kit. I wanted something light, warm, and...
Just bought one of these from camofire @$165. I imagine it will be the best truck/jeep camping pad.
I have a 9 from the mid 2k's and it's amazing https://www.outdoorgearlab.com/reviews/camping-and-hiking/sleeping-pad/exped-downmat-9. Exped makes the best mats imo.
I was on a platform in a shelter and it got <20 deg indoors. I was cold wearing baselayers and wool socks in the slick 0deg.
My 0 rated down stone glacier chilkoot bag.. no comparison.
I think the slick bag is rated for survival not so much for comfort. Also you can get in it soaking wet even with boots on, and dry out while you sleep.
I always take my boots off at the least and with the new treated down it's really obsolete now.
I also get really cold in 20 temps with...
That's true, its mainly useful for just a short or day trip. It does require a bit of bed space. I have thrown over 400lbs on it and swiveled it into the bed by myself. it's very useful in certain situations.
