Ultralight Thermawrap Jacket - Men's<br /><br />I'm looking to use this jacket mostly just around town, (20-40f) but also for the occasional use as a mid-layer for skiing and also backpacking use. How does this compare to North Face's Redpoint Insulated Jacket? Obviously there's a big weight difference, but how about warmth, fit, etc? question_63132 Sat, 03 Jan 2009 23:12:22 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/MTB0098/MontBell-America-Inc-Ultralight-Thermawrap-Jacket-Mens.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_62782#question_62782 MontBell America, Inc.

Should this layering system be adaquite. Any professional or experienced advice with this apparel please advise. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Alpine Light Down Jacket - Men's<br /><br />where I live there are major temp fluctuations from day to day even the same day but all cold. the warmest it gets in winter is 35 but down to -40 or even colder with windchill I need layering to handle these serious temps would this handle the subzero temps with a hooded transistion mountain hardware softshell, and an expedition wight base layer?<br /> question_59580 Thu, 25 Dec 2008 21:25:13 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/MTB0070/MontBell-America-Inc-Ultralight-Down-Parka-Mens.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_59506#question_59506 MontBell America, Inc. Ultralight Down Parka - Men's<br /><br />Is this jacket warm enough to wear as an everyday down in 20-30 degree temps, without a shell to bum around town etc? I love the packability of it but I'm concerned it wont be warm enough from all the comments about how light it is, it sounds like its not filled to much. I'd consider the next heaviest MB down...Any thoughts? question_59506 Thu, 25 Dec 2008 16:48:42 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/MTB0047/MontBell-America-Inc-UL-Super-Stretch-Hugger-3-Sleeping-Bag-30-Degree-Down.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_55190#question_55190 MontBell America, Inc.

Alpine Light Down Jacket - Men's<br /><br />What is the centerback measurement for this jacket? Based on the picture, it seems that it comes down just above the hip. Also, not sure what size to get. I am 5'8", 140 pounds. I wear a small in Patagonia and ArcTeryx, and in TNF, but TNF products are slightly big on me. question_43854 Tue, 02 Dec 2008 07:22:26 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/MTB0046/MontBell-America-Inc-UL-Super-Stretch-Hugger-2-Sleeping-Bag-25-Degree-Down.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_44376#question_44376 MontBell America, Inc.
