primaloft? wearable outside then.
Im a cold person when at rest, and hardly see the need outside full winter.

Im a cold person when at rest, and hardly see the need for down trousers outside full winter. specially with that 'look'!

Thanks, very useful.

Ed, maybe a bit too lightweight.

Mole, maybe the Montanes.

Depends on which Western Mountaineering ones, the flash are just pure down (more similar to the Phd ones in warmth)

The Wm flight have more down and fitted with side zips, and obviously heavier.

Beware that they all have stitch through construction so can get cold spots.

As Mole mentioned Primaloft or similar synthetics are a good option.
