The outer shell material is extremely light and fragile so it's a piece you can use only under some other clothing or have to be extremely careful with it as the outer shell is very gentle

Killer Ul Jacket
Absolutely killer jacket. Bought it to use for teaching a backpacking class in the late fall in high mountains of Idaho where it can get pretty cold pretty quick. Used it in -10f weather with a baselayer underneath and shell on top and stayed toasty the whole time. Provides an honestly impressive amount of wind resistance even on the seams. A lot of people claim durability issues but I've used it climbing, backpacking, and bikepacking for about two years now and it's done amazingly. Well done Mountain Hardwear!

Fantastic Ul Hoody!
A great addition to my backpacking layering system. Ridiculously lightweight for the degree of warmth that it provides, either as a mid-layer on winter hikes, or added warmth during rest stops/around camp. Delighted with the purchase!

Far Too Fragile
I've been doing section hikes of the AT over the last couple years and bought the Ghost Whisper 2 because it was so highly recommended. A month ago I decided to upgrade to the UL to save an ounce or so and gain some packability. I wore it a few times around the house and then noticed down feathers spilling out. I don't know how, but I had a 1" tear on the front in the middle of a baffle. Used some Tenacious tape to repair it and its holding. I wore it on a section hike last week with no issues, but I think the fabric is just too fragile, even for just around town or camp use. I wouldn't buy it again and would instead get another Ghost Whisperer 2. Its not worth the extra cost or reduced durability.

Warmest Jacket I've Ever Had!
We have been dealing with frigid temperatures, freezing rain, and snow this year. The cold doesn't get through this jacket - it's incredible. It's great because you can scrunch it up and throw it in a bag. I highly recommend!
