Not what you are asking but the insulated gilet is great. Feels really well made - I wouldn't have concerns using it with a rucksack, but I guess that would wear out any item faster than not having one on.

Ultralight Insulated Jacket looks pretty epic
I really like it. I don't know that I'd wear it with a heavy backpack as I don't know how the material would wear. It doesn't feel fragile but ultra-lightweight and heavy straps rubbing don't seem like they'd be compatible in the long term.

Sadly my Endura Pro primaloft gilet was stolen yesterday (or more likely, removed by someone thinking it was litter) so I'm on the lookout for a replacement.
Really keen to give Albion a go, the Insulated Gilet appears quite similar to what I had but the Ultralight Insulated Jacket looks pretty epic. Primary concerns are I have really long arms and if the jacket is a bit too lightweight/delicate for commuting regularly with a heavy rucksack. Thoughts?
