Hello all,
So, I just bought a mens XXL Patagonia Nano-Air Hoody's at Costco in MN Twin Cities for $99 weighing in at: 457 g (16.125 oz). Weight listed on patagonia's site 385 g (13.6 oz) but that's for a different size.
Here's a review of Patagonia's Nano-Air Hoody: gearjunkie nano air jacket review
My idea right now is to start the AT with the Nano-Air Hoody and then switch to XXL Melanzana Micro Grid Hoody --only $69 and 356 g-- once it gets warm enough. Fairly similar material to the Patagonia R1 according to something I glanced at on backpacking light.
See Melanzana.com for more on the Micro Grid, if you'd like.
New version of this product is called the Nano Air Light Hoody: 309 g (10.9 oz) http://www.patagonia.com/product/mens-nano-air-light-hoody/84280.html
Oh, and I got a Luke's Ultralight Windbreaker XXL at 78 grams that will be used to complement both of these...
Hope this is of use and not confusing,
Miguelon
