mimics the behaviour of down by trapping body heat using small pockets of air, but as it is synthetic, it continues to perform when wet and it does not migrate around a product.  Because Hydroloft® does not migrate, Berghaus is able to combine it with less tightly woven inner and face fabrics, allowing perspiration to escape while the wearer is on the move and significantly increasing the comfort delivered by finished products when in use.

I recently bought a Marmot Isotherm - great activity jacket - couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Well worth a look - http://marmot.com/products/details/isotherm-hoody-new

You've got a great way with words Windy, you could make money out of that  ;)

Sounds like a good yoke, hope you got a few cold days to enjoy it.
