It's hard to say. I did not have an option, as the 44 was the only size that the store had when I tried it. It fit me well, so I can't say what the difference is between other sizes. Maybe go with the size according to the website. Just a suggestion. I can't give you any more specific help, sorry. This is the only jacket that I have from Mackage, so I cant compare or say that one runs smaller or larger than another.

@ no worries thanks for responding!

Hi, this is just a one minute short video showing the jacket. I have a full video all about this jacket on my channel. There I get into the specifics, and compare it to the newer version.

Yes, sorry, I misunderstood. The website says that the company was born in Arctic Norway. But I realize that It was founded by two Royal Marines. I have a correction in the video's description.

My XL fit me well. It's my normal size.

30's - 40'sF. It depends on what you're doing. If it's a high output activity, maybe a little colder

Personally, I like the Beta. The Torrentshell is a bit more durable jacket, but a stiffer, and heavier jacket. The Beta has a nice GoreTex membrane too. I just like the feel of the Beta better. The Patagonia is a good jacket, it just depends on what you like. Heavier, stiffer, more durable, or lighter weight. The Beta will be durable enough for many activities, and both will be waterproof, windproof, and breathable. I just think that the Beta may be a bit more breathable due to the weight of the fabric.

@ Wow, thank you for the quick reply! That’s what I was thinking, would you say it is worth the £100 difference? Thanks!

@edhodson8188 yes, definitely if you're happy with it🙂

@@meandmyjackets Brilliant. Thank you for the help, Chris! 😄

Good to hear, Thank you. I'm glad that the videos helped you.

Thank you, I appreciate the help with that. I'll have to look into that further. 🙂

Thank you for watching

Not bad for a ski jacket. About $375.

I cannot change the thumbnail, it is generated by RUclips.

I do really like their products. They are very well made and designed.

It's a nice jacket. Maybe they will come out with different color options in the near future.

There’s many options. I just bought one today in orange

@@alphazerotactical1518 Agreed. Nice color too.

I'm 6'2" 215 lbs. Size XL

From what I have learned, all jackets when new will do very well, the question is how well will it holds up over time. How quickly will it need to be retreated with a DWR spray? That will also depend on use. However, I do understand your point.

Thank you, I'll look into Montane more.

Thank you for watching!

Thank you.

ME makes great stuff! I have several videos on their products so far, and I will be doing more in the near future.

The website says acetate, metal, and nylon

@@meandmyjackets Metal for the screw, nylon for the structure, acetate for where it connects to the lens.

Thank you, I would like to do a video on the Electron pro as well as a few other Rab jackets in the near future. I will look into the Mackage. I do own the Kenji RF.

Thank you for watching!

Thank you for watching, I try to show as much as I can to help others understand what the jacket is all about.

It is not embroidered. It's printed. Given the texture and stretchability of the fabric, I'm not sure if it could be embroidered. I'm just guessing.

I wear a size XL. All of my jackets that I review are XL. This way, I can tell if a jacket runs bigger or small. All of the Patagonia and Rab jackets here are XL. I hope that helps you.🙂

Sorry, I should have included that. I just did add chapters to it. Hope that helps everyone.

Rab really makes a good product. I have not been disappointed with anything that I have tried from them.

@@CrossoverDayPackReviews yes. Everything I purchase is on XL. That's my normal size. I find that the L is a bit shorter on arm length, and too trim in the mid section if I want to wear a layer under it. The XL allows me room to layer under it comfortably. Keep in mind that most shells are designed / cut larger. To be worn as an outer layer over other pieces.

Thank you for watching!

@@vishalky88 I like the XL. Even though you are trimmer than me, this jacket will give you same room to layer under it if necessary. But it is cut just a bit shorter on the bottom hem, so they length of the XL. May be a bit better. It's hard to say, what size do you normally wear? Given your height, I think the length of the arms and overall length of the jacket. In an XL like mine may be better for you. Just a suggestion.

Sometimes it is an adventure. Reason being that I try out so many different jackets, and some have zippers on the right side, and others are on the left. So it gets confusing sometimes.🙂

Possible, It's just new to me, and I want to learn more about it.

I have the Atom as well, you're right, it's close, but the insulation in my Piz Boe does seem to be a bit more compressed. I am interested in testing another similar Ortovox jacket like the Piz Duan and compare it to my Piz Boe. Just curious.

@@nobodyinparticular3341 I really like this stuff.🙂 just ordered two more pieces, so.... There's more coming soon.

Thank you, this is the first piece that I've tried from Ortovox. I'm impressed. They seem like a great company. I will be doing more videos about their products soon. Thank you for watching!

They both are similar in some respects, but different in others. The das light is in general not as warm as the Oreus. The ME is an award winning synthetically insulated jacket for it's warmth to weight ratio. The das is warm for it's weight too, but the ME is really nice. These jackets are both made for mountain activities, ME is known for that, and many of their pieces are typically on another level. But these jackets are both designed for warmth. An outer layer to provide protection from cold wind and light rain. They are not going to be very breathable, at least not as much as other insulation layers can be. They are for colder conditions to provide warmth with light weight. They can be worn alone, but may be a bit better as an outer layer for extra warmth in those colder conditions. The Das Parka is closer in warmth to the Oreus than the DAS Light. Good belay style jackets too. Personally, I like the Das Light better than the DAS Parka, but The Oreus and other ME jackets are awesome. So they can be worn as active insulation pieces, but they're better for colder weather as they are not as breathable. They will hold in the warmth when needed.

Hi, I'm 6'2" 215lbs. Size XL. I talk more about the size and fit in my full length video about this jacket here on my channel. The link to it is in the description as well.

@@meandmyjackets 🙏

Thanks for your comment. It's interesting that the Brilliant lens is darker than the Pure. I would not have thought that. I do have a blue Pure, and a blue Super thin glass, and have not noticed a difference. I'm curious now.🙂 I wonder why that is?

@@michaelmcclure9350 I did not test it with water, and not longer have that jacket. Sorry.🙂

@@meandmyjackets Thanks for the reply. You might try that OR Vigor Plus fleece. Its very water repellent so far and it doesn’t have such a big hood.

@michaelmcclure9350 I have not got into Outdoor Research products, but that may be something in the future

@ I have several OR garments and I’d rank most of it at least Patagonia quality if not a bit higher. That Vigor Plus hoody might be a good place to start. Also the Headwall hard shell has some nice features. Enwild has videos on both.

@@michaelmcclure9350 Sounds good. I'm sure that I'll get into OR eventually.

Thank you for watching!

I really like the Norrona Trollveggen Down 800. I own the older version, It's not much different. It's a down jacket that is very warm, it just does not have the GoreTex infinium face fabric. It's also like half the price. I just wore it here tonight, it's 7 degrees F, I just had a t-shirt on under it, and I was not cold at all. It's a great jacket. For around the same price as the Alpha, you can get this jacket plus a nice hardshell to go over if needed! Then you're really good no matter what the weather may be like.

Awesome, I'm glad the video helped you. 🙂

Thank you, I'm trying!🙂 I appreciate your support.

This is my normal size of XL that I buy in everything. Yes it does fit much trimmer than the other Mythic Jackets. I don't know why that is, but..... it is definitely cut trimmer.

@@meandmyjackets I was asking because I will have to size up to an XL, as Rab sizing always runs small.

@@user-ic5cc8um4s It's always hard to say exactly how each piece will fit someone else, but this jacket seems to run small, and sizing up to accommodate layers would be a good idea.

@@user-ic5cc8um4s I have not had an issue with the Rab pieces that I have tested over the last couple years. I always order XL in all of my jackets from different companies. It's my normal size, and it helps me to determine whether a piece is cut smaller or larger. This way, I can inform my viewers better about the fit. This Mythic Ultra jacket really did fit me tighter in the mid section than other Rab jackets that I have reviewed. Even all of the other Mythic jackets fit me great in a size XL. I own and love the Mythic G, size XL is perfect. I can even wear a layer under it without a problem. Just the M Ultra runs smaller (trimmer) in the body. The arms and overall length were good.

It's nice, but it's cut large. It's a typical Patagonia jacket,.... Nice, but personally I don't find it to be anything special. Just my opinion, not a bad jacket, but I would like the fit to be better. Hopefully my video demonstrates how big it runs.

Perhaps with a base layer under it for warmth. But it's not going to be very waterproof. They are designed more for climbing, so they will stretch a bit to give you more mobility. They are durable, A better choice may be the Gamma MX as it has a fleece backing, and are warmer than the AR's. Personally, I would wear a pair of shell pants, with a layer under it depending on how cold it is. I really like my Cortazu all-weather shell pants. They are great, waterproof, windproof, strong and very well priced. I have a video about them here on my channel too.🙂

@ thanks. appreciate it and love watching your videos! 🫡

It is somewhat breathable, but not like the Xenair. This jacket is designed to block the cold wind, withstand some snow or light rain, (keep you protected from the weather), and provide warmth. It's one of the best warmth to weight synthetic insulated jackets on the market. The Xenair will allow airflow through it, even though it has a heavier insulation, you won't feel as warm. Unless your doing some sort of high energy activity. Even then, you will need a shell on top to provide weather protection, where the Oreus does not need an outer layer in most circumstances.
