Great lightweight fleece

Rab Baseline Jacket - Men's
I was between this Rab and the Patagonia R1. I have an older R1 that is a little too large for use as a mid layer. I love it for a casual jacket. The Rab is lighter weight and not quite as warm. It does work great as a mid layer. I use this over a wool base layer and under a hardshell for skiing. So far the system works great. Since the hood is intended for under helmets, it is pretty tight. Overall the fit is good. I am 5-11, 175 lbs and the large is perfect. I wear a medium in Patagonia for comparison. The chest pocket is pretty big and there are no hand warmer pockets, but the thumb holes on the sleeves are well designed and comfortable.
Decent belt

Grip6 Business Time Belt
I love the buckle and the way the belt tightens. It does not loosen on its own. My only disappointment is how the webbing belt deforms after use. It develops a curve in the material at the back that sometimes becomes uncomfortable against my back when I transition from sitting to standing. It almost needs to “settle in” each position.

Huge rain cover
Written on Apr 27, 2016
Based on the description, this was the correct size rain cover for my 50+10 pack, but since it goes up to 90 L, it is huge. Way to big for my pack so I returned it. Material was high quality, just too big.
Super light and warm mid-layer

Review for
Rab Continuum Pull-On Jacket - Men's
I purchased this as a mid-layer for downhill skiing and it is great. Since it is a pull over, there is no extra zipper bulk under my shell. It does not have hand pockets, but again, as a mid-layer, I did not want that extra bulk. I can see missing pockets when I use this for a super lightweight jacket while backpacking JMT this summer, but that will be a small sacrifice since the jacket is so light weight. I’m 5-11, 180 lbs and the large fits fine-maybe just a little loose but very comfortable.
