"The Black Diamond Men’s Deploy Down 0. 5 is an outstanding ultralight jacket. It feels almost impossibly light, packs down to practically nothing, and still provides an impressive amount of warmth for its weight. The fit is comfortable and athletic without restricting movement, making it perfect for hiking, backpacking, and other fast-moving outdoor activities. The materials feel delicate because of how light they are, but the construction is excellent and every detail appears carefully designed to reduce unnecessary weight. It disappears inside a backpack, so there is little reason to leave it at home. I am extremely impressed with this jacket and highly recommend it to anyone who values minimal weight, excellent packability, and dependable warmth."
"Bought this as an emergency layer for mountain running. Feels barely there in the pack but very cozy when you have it on. Love the quarterzip/pullover design"
"Purchased to keep pack weight down for alpine days and for an upcoming Colorado Trail through hike. This thing will be such a perfect fit as an emergency mid layer/for night at camp. Did I mention it’s mega lightweight?"
"This is an excellent piece of gear, but it's really meant for climbers. The hood is only useful with a helmet on. It's extremely light and well made, but I'm willing to add a few grams for an adjustable hood."
"this thing feels like you're picking up a piece of paper but it's just as warm as advertised"
"This is sort of a nothing piece of equipment not worth the cost. What is it for? It is too light to be worn as an out wear piece. If it is meant to be a heavy base layer why the hood. An awfully expensive base layer that does not seem to be all that warm having worn it at about 30-35F over 2 base layers and under a fleece hoodie i was comfortable warm. I would not buy it again not at this price."
"It’s freakishly light and you could forget you are wearing it. It’s really warm for its weight and packability and is good for early/late season mornings"
"Super light weight beyone ultralight, form fitting not baggy at all"
"Lightweight yet warm. Great to layer with on colder days. Slim fit keeps it from 'flopping' around. Not a fan of the helmet size hood tho'."
"Perfect for those early/late season multipitch days."
