This stuff periodically goes on sale, but these are some of the lower prices I’ve seen. It also appears that they are offering free shipping today. Here are the links:

FYI, my size medium down hooded jacket weighed in at ~8.9oz, and it was probably my favorite piece of gear on the PCT this summer. I’m a skinny/cold person, but the jacket (plus a 100-weight fleece, mostly for wet conditions and sleeping) did me just fine for summer in the Sierra.
I also have a medium vest (~5.0 oz), the Heattech ‘extra warm’ leggings (~6.0 oz if I remember correctly), the Heattech ‘extra warm’ turtleneck (~9.0 oz in M). The leggings are also a favorite of mine and my friends, and were also along for the ride on the PCT. Worn under a pair of shorts, they’ve kept me warm down to around 30F or so (in dry/calm conditions, while hiking), didn’t seem to accumulate any stink even though I had them on for half the day, and are stretchy/comfortable for hiking or climbing in. For me, I don’t think there are better values for down jackets / baselayers, so I thought I’d share.
