NanulsGood lightweight jacket

Voted 4/5

The Cirrus is an excellent lightweight insulated jacket that packs down into a small size. I have used mine as part of single and multi-day trips and it has been extremly useful for throwing over the top of the other layers when things get a bit cold. The one criticism I have is that there is no hood which is a real paim when the temperature really drops.
