[QUOTE="Tortuga, post: 1290777, member: 88975"] I'm a big fan of both. In my experience, a good, light Primaloft jacket like the Arcteryx Atom LT offers incredible warmth to weight ratio in a very compressible package. As far as marino wool goes, I appreciate the wide temperature range I can comfortably operate in. I find I can go from static cold mornings, ascend mid-morning, and descend in the afternoon, and static again late in the day without shedding layers. I usually only need to transition from wool beanie to ball cap and zip-unzip my top to regulate my temp. Good examples from marino wool tops include the Ibex Shak Hoodoo hoodie and the Kuiu Ultra Marino 210 Hoodie. I tend to pick tops with hoods because I always have access to a warming cap (which is really nice if you wear a helmet for a living) and when I don't need them, I can either roll them up as a collar or fold them inside my collar so they don't gather precip or debris.
