The Montbell EX Light series never fails to deliver and the Down Anroak is a continuation of that excellent form.
Montbell says
The EX Light products have always epitomized our minimalist design concepts. Ultra-light and space saving this garment provides the highly versatile sweater weight warmth critical to the ever growing population of gram counting trail demon. Mindful selection of premium materials has always made the EX Light Anorak a perfect replacement for heavier, bulky items that traditionally demand so much space in your pack. New for Fall/Winter 2019, we have outfitted the Anorak with a 2-way Adjustable Hood and a FULLY insulated tunnel pocket (yes, down on both side of your precious digits!). Increases in Fill Weight in concert with incremental improvement in baffle shape have produced greater loft and warmth. Functional in its purpose, versatile in its use, and with over 35% of the garment weight being premium quality down insulation this piece is a must for any well thought out layering system!
Our Verdict
Montbell's EX Light Down Anorak is a premium quality down piece. The thought that has went into the baffle placement, down quality selection and the materials used in the construction jacket is second to none.
The 900 fill power down provides so much warmth while remaining lightweight and packable. While the 1/2 length zip provides ventilation while you're working up a sweat.
The adjustable hood provides a secure fit underneath a shell without interfering with vision. The finishing touch is the double insulated through pocket that provides insulation on both sides, with the waist adjustment being tucked inside here as to keep it from getting tangled up on other straps such as the hip belt.
