Thread: Lightweight jackets

Better than anything mentioned would be Arcteryx but spendy. I've got a Alpha FL that's amazing. It's only 315grams and way more durable than 95% of the standard weight jackets and way more durable than options like the Stoney Creek stowit I've used as it's goretex Pro. The Alpha AR(All Round version) is even more durable and still weighs the same as the Rifleman. They are athletic cut and super nice but spendy. I got mine from the factory store in Vancouver. The SV(Severe version) is still only 510g and is absolutely bombproof. Only thing is just make sure you get one with the gore tex Pro as the other gore tex isn't near as durable or breathable.
