Enlightened Equipment builds it around synthetic Climashield APEX insulation, so a monsoon squall, a sweaty climb, or a frosty bivy doesn't flatten it the way it would down. Normally it's a made-to-order, wait-a-few-weeks piece. We've got them on the shelf in Silver City, ready to ship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn stock and ships now.\u003c\/strong\u003e No custom-order wait.

It's a functional, boxy fit rather than a tailored one. If you're between sizes and don't plan to layer much underneath, size down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it warm enough for winter in the Gila?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's a three-season insulating layer: cold mornings, high camps, shoulder-season nights. For deep winter, yes we use them in the winter as well, but it's hella cold, consider pairing it with one of our TumbleOn Alpha Direct hoodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy synthetic instead of down?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSynthetic keeps insulating when it gets wet, whether that's from a summer storm, a river crossing, or your own sweat on a long climb. Down packs smaller, but it quits when it's soaked.  Also, cleaning a synthetic layer is infinitely simpler than cleaning\/drying down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy buy it here instead of direct?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEE builds most Torrids to order.
