There are lots of different jackets available at that weight. EB's version is a nice jacket. I prefer the Atom SV. Better fit, hood, general detailing and color choices :)Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08300760603627210620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-54139224951141182172012-02-10T05:12:44.734-08:002012-02-10T05:12:44.734-08:00Dane, what do you think of the First Ascent Ignite...Dane, what do you think of the First Ascent Igniter as a belay jacket? I've loved mine for that purpose, and it's equally at home for climbing in as well, although I've never climbed in cold enough weather for it to be necessary. Best belay jacket I've ever used. Solid Primaloft One all the way through, and slightly less than 20 oz. It's definitely the best First Ascent piece I've used.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14228564825123601389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-32454090741240631232011-06-09T22:27:12.540-07:002011-06-09T22:27:12.540-07:00Hi Marcello,

Hopefully at some point that might change.<br /><br />The Rab: "30D Pertex Endurance; [lining] Pertex Quantum Insulation:800-fill European down." Weight seems a little over optomistic @ 22oz. and I see quotes of both 750 to 850 as down spec. <br /><br />Pertex is good stuff. It is a good start :-)Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08300760603627210620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-12716732964851158682011-06-09T20:45:59.717-07:002011-06-09T20:45:59.717-07:00have you ever reviewed the rab neutrino endurance?...have you ever reviewed the rab neutrino endurance? its down but waterproof, you tell what you think, would you?marcellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10904479520337525323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-10711909087717676072011-05-23T00:14:42.842-07:002011-05-23T00:14:42.842-07:00The tag on my jacket says "Made in China.&quo...The tag on my jacket says "Made in China."

But a 5 year guarantee speaks for itself imo.
