Uniqlo in NYC has these down ultra-light jackets that weigh 7 ounces. They also only cost $79.90 + tax. I think this is a very affordable option and has comparable weight to the patagonia ultra-light down sweaters at a much cheaper price.

I also love Uniqlo's heat-tech long-john underwear for layering. They are super light and very warm.

For those of you who don't live in NYC or in Tokyo, Japan, you may be able to get them to ship the jacket to you by calling them. Heres more information on the product: http://www.uniqlo.com/us/CPaGoods/itemcode=069087#top

The jackets look great and tremendous value. I tried one on and it has what feels like a very effective high collar.

The hood on the hoody on the other hand is pretty hopeless. It's very floppy with no kind of cinch cord or adjustment so no good for me as I only really like hooded insulation.

If you're looking for a jacket though I'd definitely try this as it looks excellent value compared to the competition,

I love Uniqlo. Seriously. I wish they had stores outside of NYC or would open an online site. Their heattech stuff is nice, but their normal clothes are good too. Love their boxers.
