Mountain Equipment's Frostline Down Vest is a very light and packable layering piece to boost warmth when you need it. I doubt you'd ever regret having this in your pack.
Mountain Equipment says
An ultralight narrow baffled vest with a weather-resistant shell. A perfect extra layer for trekkers and alpinists. With a big boost of warmth and a tiny pack size this versatile down vest easily fits into even the smallest pack at any time of the year. The DRILITE Loft shell gives added protection whether worn as an outer layer or under a shell in more challenging conditions.
Our Verdict
Mountain Equipment's Frostline Down Vest is a great light-weight and packable garment to boost warmth at your core where you need it most. Great for layering with its minimal bulk.
The location of the down in the vest has been calculated to maximise warmth. The tough 20 denier Drilite Loft fabric is completely windproof and provides some water resistance. The Frostline vest has 2 handwarmer pockets and it stuffs into the left hand pocket making it easy to clip into a harness or stow in your pack.
