![]() Fleeces run the gamut from casual to breathable performance pieces for serious adventures. ![]() These polyester jackets have been providing cozy warmth for years from campsites and ski resorts to the streets and restaurants of mountain towns. Love it already.With a wide variety of insulated jackets on the market, the classic fleece still is the most comfortable and affordable. Just got a better sweater 1/4 zip in the mail. Also am intrigued by r2 techface which will probably go on the list bc I run cold, but I don't have one yet. Love the look of better sweaters but I don't own one yet. I have a r1 techface but I haven't figured out the optimal usage for it yet, so I don't know where it belongs on the list, but I'm liking it a lot this fall. My other most worn items are old and discontinued - the wind shield jacket for jogging/hiking, some light 3L goretex shell I bought used that's my most used raincoat. I bought a silent down parka recently bc I love the jacket so much. The silent down material is so soft! Love that it's not form fitting. I got it in a mustard yellow and wore it as much as I could last winter. For women - I really love the silent down jacket as a no frills casual around town jacket.I live in a rainy climate but I still love this (goes under a shell when it rains) I love the look more than the Nano puff. Down Sweater (Jacket and vest) - it's classic and warm.R1 air (have a crew, wouldn't mind others).Nano Air! (I have a hoody, many jackets, couple of vests and I use them all).(Super useful if you don’t want to jam everything into pockets when traveling, attach Niteize S-biners for added functionality/zipper control)Īs someone else mentioned, if you’re ok with the aesthetic (& higher cost), rather get a more “technical” piece than its daily equivalent as one you can wear in both high-output AND “normal life” scenarios, whereas the other might only excel in regular daily life. (2022 new version is no longer BDSM shiny, now has water bottle holder, hip belt that doubles as shoulder sling, dedicated laptop/tech compartment)ġ0 - Ultralight Black Hole Mini Hip Pack 1L. “Equivalent” is now Arbor Linked Pack, but it doesn’t pack down & has different opening & ugly handles) (Discontinued, but awesome traveling daypack (that packs down), people couldn’t figure out that a simple carabiner would keep water bottles from falling out… Their loss. Thought Velcro adjust would suck, but actually works well). (Not as high UPF as advertised, but great in heat & pounding sun regardless, bonus thumb loops) (Like classic R1, but more rugged outside) (Older versions, new cut is crotch constricting, 3 zippers & packs down!) (Classic piece, cuts wind, keeps warm with synthetic insulation even when wet) Interestingly the Houdini & Nano Air together almost make an “equivalent” to the Nano Puff… So for more versatility, just get Nano Air & Houdini to skip the Nano Puff) (Indispensable windbreaker that packs down to “nothing.” May seem like you’re paying “a lot” for something so functionally minuscule, but it’s effective & durable AF. ) Someone said this piece was “too technical,” so then get the Pack In jacket which is similar & less “technical” (read slightly heavier)) (Epic temperature regulating piece, EVERYONE should get one, unless you never travel & live in a constant 75+ degree caldera that doesn’t even cool at night… You will fall in love.
