Most versatile piece in my kit

I have been climbing and guiding throughout North America since 2005. This is hands down my favorite insulation layer I have ever had. From cold desert pitches, to steep ice climbs, and long PNW volcanos, this layer is with me. The dual front zip pockets are key for me and my phone and guide notebook. Power-stretch is an amazingly soft and comfortable material, so much so that this is often what I seep in while camping, especially at altitude.

Warm and comfortable

I like the build quality of the franconia. It is a bit more snug than I prefer. I'm 6' 5" and weigh 188 pounds. I got the Large Tall and it is very form fitting. It will make a great winter layer.

Now a Permanent Piece of the Gear List

My wife bought me this for a winter layer, for skiing and snowshoeing, and it’s perfect! Just thick enough as a layer to wear above a base layer, and thin enough to wear under a shell without overheating. I was impressed at how warm this was just wearing this over the base layer while gearing up for an alpine tour, at 10°F, but it was very breathable for both the uphill and the downhill under the shell. The hood and built-in face cover are nicely designed. And it’s very comfortable! Well done Burgeon!

New go to!

The Franconia is my new favorite top layer! Comfortable, warm, breathable, and I love that it’s a little longer at the bottom. The built in face mask and thumb holes on the sleeves are awesome features as well!
