I really like the looks of this jacket too. It's advertised as only 0.1 ounce heavier than the ID Thru Hiker (11.9 oz). For the weight of a small candy bar you get a full front zip.

I have the Demand Pull-on – great jacket. Light, packable, great hood, eVent. Be aware it's a bit tight around the shoulders, compared to other Rab jackets.

Have you guys ever seen rab stuff low like this or is this the only time? Should i wait for another sale down the road? Are they coming out with anything new that may lower the price on something like this?

Ike, i've picked up rab at 50% off, but that was very rare. I would think that this would be your best bet if you are especially looking at the brand new demand pullover. Until they release a revised, newer season of it, I doubt you'll see it being blown out for any lower. Of course I could be totally wrong, just my take on it

Ike, I haven't seen such a steep discount before on their stuff. If you're looking for a lightweight eVent jacket, this looks to me like the right time.

and it weighs 9.15 oz for the medium. That's lighter than advertised. You can add 0.35 for thier stuff sack, but it's still lighter under their advertised 10 oz. I'm 5'9" at 153 lbs. I do have 40 shoulders from 12 years of competitive swimming. The medium is a little smaller than other mediums like Konrad has said in the past. However, I'm able to wear my MB UL down hoody under it and still have comfortable movement.
