An excellent mid layer. Tried it on the weekend we visited Tongariro - just a hike to Waihoununu but and back. No issue with pilling although fabric does look coarse. Plenty of airflow without the loss of body heat.

Almost the holy grail of mid-layer active insulation. "instantly warm" is how I describe wearing this.
I have used this jacket a few times since purchase. First for tramping training hikes, and then on a multi-day tramp over our local ranges. The jacket breathes well and wicks sweat away, even for a heavy sweat-hog like me. When static, it does let wind through the open weave, so a windproof outer over top is essential. It compresses well when carried in the pack, and is very light. The only thing that made this the 'almost' holy grail, was the long sleeves, being a hobbit-sized user. I dont have monkey arms. I originally ordered a medium, but it was too tight for my short stocky frame (165cm tall, 102cm chest, 86cm waist). I returned it using the process on the website, and a size large was dispatched. The customer service was outstanding. (they even reached out to Rab to confirm the right sizing, which validated the size large).
One very happy customer, of both the product and the customer service.
