Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a synthetic insulation jacket to wear in temperatures ranging from to 45F (7C) to 55F (12C). Currently had my sights on jackets with Primaloft filling, and considering:
1. North Face "On Sight" Jacket
2. Mountain Equipment Fitzroy Jacket
Ok, now the thing is, I'm not sure how warm Primaloft is, and how comfortable it is in the cold. What I've seen on the forums is that 100g primaloft is good enough for 25 degrees F with just a T-shirt. While others say they feel quite good at 53F.
So I'm wondering if it will be too warm for me to wear such a jacket at around 50F. Anyone has experience with Primaloft? (If it helps I'm using the jacket for walking around the city and not serious outdoor climbing. No layering to be done except for a T-shirt)
Currently deciding between 60g and 100g Primaloft. Thanks!
