Sizing way off, but puffs up great
Just a word of warning - the sizing on the Medium is way off. It is huge, especially around the chest and waist.. very disappointed that I can't use since the jacket puffs up incredibly for synthetic material. I always wear medium in Patagonia and up until now it has fittted me perfectly.

Light weight and compact in size
Have not been able to test in really cold weather yet. It is very light in weight and size. Looking forward to updating my review when I get to try it during a planned winter hike. The Micro Puff handled the low 40's with ease with just a wicking short sleeve shirt underneath. Thanks Altrec for getting the micro to me in time for my trip.

First pick on my cheklist
Outstanding warmth to weight ratio, fit perfectly over my base layer and long-sleeved pullover shirt. Took my summer bag, a Exped Wall Climber which is rated to 40f, this new Patagonia addition kept its loft all night and got me through a 28f night on the OHT.OK, OK, I woke up every two hours and did some crunches to get my core temp up.not the most comfortable night but this light weight bad-boy really took the edge off what could have been unbearable night. I think I got a winner that will go on my first pick checklist on many more trips to come.

Great for outdoor lovers
This sweater is a must have for outdoor people. It is especially great for backpacking since it is light, warm, windproof and waterresistant. Furthermore it does not get lumpy when wet.
