Reviews & Ratings for Mammut Lithium Jacket - Men's — 2 reviews — Page 1

I just picked up a Lithium jacket on a whim as a lightweight mid layer and a cool weather outer layer for around town. Wow! What a terrific fit! I’m a lanky 6’ 5”, 220 lbs, and the XL looks and feels like it’s tailor-made for me. Very trim for an XL. Typical Mammut design and construction--those Swiss really do know how to make great-fitting clothing for tall, slim guys.
The lightweight nylon lining is buttery-smooth and very comfortable. The sleeve length is perfect and the lycra cuff gaiters are pure genius! It seems to be pretty breathable, but blocks wind effectively. I like the fact it’s a technical piece, but it looks really smooth and streamlined for everyday wear. This will fit really nicely under my Stoic Bombshell jacket for colder ski days.
I haven’t had a chance to test it in cold temps yet, but it seems like it should work well below freezing under a hardshell or maybe into the 20s during high exertion activities. Mammut doesn’t list the amount of insulation, but it seems comparable to a 50 or 60 gram fill synthetic jacket. At 13 oz, it’s a bit heavier (and probably not as warm) as my Arcteryx Nuclei hoody, but it fills a niche as a less technical layering piece w/o a hood.
I really didn’t need another lightweight synthetic fill jacket, but I’m really glad I bought this one (on sale, of course)! This jacket has been discontinued, so this is probably your last chance to grab one. Highly recommended!

Soft material , comfortable skin contact , Well-fitting , easy packing good for break time during hiking.
