Tldr; size M fully featured: 6.8oz total. Skip hood and Roo pocket: 5.6 oz

The JMT Pullover is our lightest insulated shell. Designed for summer layering in the mountains, it's named after the classic John Muir Trail in the Sierra

Features

The JMT is a hooded pullover with a deep, venting ½ zipper

Roomy Kangaroo hand-warmer pocket, Alpha Direct insulated to save bulk and weight

The hood casing and waist hem have fully adjustable shockcords

The sleeve ends have no elastic, but comes with thumb loops

Warmth

With base layers most users should have static comfort at 35-40°F

The insulation represents over 50% of the total weight

A sewn-thru design will increase its insulating properties if used under a lightweight wind shell, trapping additional air in the baffle depressions 

Pro tip: Try sourcing a 10d shell lined with Alpha Direct and wear this on top for freezing damp conditions, or butt cold shoulder season use. 

Utility

This is not an 'Active Insulation' layer. Using while wearing a pack will trap perspiration, quickly flattening the down

Design

10d fabrics. More durable options available on menu

900 fill power goose down with Alpha Direct in select areas

Sewn thru non-box baffled construction allow efficient use of small amounts of down

Non-separating zipper prolong the life of the garment while making it easier to handle in strong winds

Sizing

The pullover is based on the pattern from the long gone Apex JMT, ie same fit: Roomy enough for light layering

Lightest Shell/Liner Combo

Select this black/black combo as a shortcut to the lightest JMT build.

The color selections further down the menu ranges from only a slight increase in weight (10d) to a considerable increase (40d). 15d occupies the middle ground for those wanting a little more durability without a huge penalty.

While all the options are windproof only the 40d shells will offer more than mediocre weather resistance.

 
Black 10d Ripstop Out - Black 10d Taffeta In - Lightest, least bulky option
 
 
No thanks, I prefer to select colors below at a small weight penalty
