I was thinkin' about the same options. But looks like I'll end up with this:

Mont Bell UL ThermaWrap was also a runner up. And naturally Pataguccis Nano Puff something.

In reply to Capt. Spacey:

They fit quite differently - have your tried them on? I think the Rotor is lighter, it feels it. The Rab is a bit more robust, from memory.

The Pata synth pullovers are only worth it on deep discount. Their price in the UK is just ridiculous.

In reply to Capt. Spacey: cheers everyone, tried the OMM / Rab and montane today. The OMM is very flimsy but well made, more for the wieght conscious. Montane was nice but no hand pockets. Looks like the Rab hand and chest pockets, more robust and weight is not a major concern. Cheers for the support.
