Not as light as I hoped

by A A., Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on May 19, 2018
I was hoping to replace a Castelli merino baselayer top (244g) in my ultralight mountain hiking packlist, and gain some options for intermediate conditions. Unfortunately it weighs 424g (size L) which is too large a weight hit. The fit is great (I'm 6'2" 180lb), and it looks good, so I'll find some other uses.

For comparison, my primary jacket is a Patagonia ultralight down hoodie weighing 324g, and my rain jacket weighs 100g.
