Gnome Enthusiast's Review of Mammut Eiswand Advanced ML Hooded Jacket - Men's

I purchased a “large”.

I’m 6’0, 200 lbs (I’m working on that! :), 42-44 inch (106-112cm) chest. I normally fit in “large” across the spectrum of outerwear and mid-layers. This was no exception.

My primary-use is ice-climbing, with 4-season backpacking as a secondary-use.

I normally wear an “action suit” consisting of a short-sleeve base-layer, long-sleeve secondary base-layer, and a sleeveless fleece bib/suit/one-piece. Until now, all of these pieces have been hood-less. This piece was purchased to go on top of all of that, so a mid-layer, and it fits, albeit snugly (athletic/trim).

One of the things that attracted me to this jacket is the placement of the chest-pockets. Climbing (wearing a harness) prohibits the function of waist-pockets, so a chest-pocket for a phone, etc. is key. This one has TWO.

Please note that I have not actually worn this for my intended uses. I did purchase an “extra large” just to compare the fit, and it’s a little looser than I’d want for climbing, but may be better for non-technical use (e.g. backpacking).

This is a beautiful hooded-jacket, and I WANT to wear it.

Of note, I also purchased the Mammut Aconcagua Light ML Hooded Jacket in Large to wear as a base-layer. I LOVE it and wear it constantly, with a t-shirt underneath, to do yard work in 40-50 degree temps. I love it so much that purchased a second one.
