How much does this jacket weigh? Is the shell made of tough ripstop material? Is the Omni-heat lining visible inside the jacket?

Not sure of exact weight but it is very lightweight, comfortable and warm. Shell is 100%Polyester ripstop material. The Omni is visible inside the jacket.I would purchase this jacket again. Was warm, in a Minneapolis winter last year.

The jacket is made of a very soft outer material, and does not appear to be extremely tough. It is lightweight, does not feel heavy, although the jacket is very warm. The lining is visible on the inside as shinny panels. I have a cheaper Down Jacket that I purchased at Sam's years ago that is similar, although it is more comfortable. I never get too hot in that jacket, and I never get cold in our East Tennessee Winters. This Columbia Jacket will probably be warmer and especially useful in colder climates. Wearing it inside only so far, I got hot in a hurry! I also purchased a Carhart Down Jacket that does have a shell made of a much tougher material, but not quite as rough or coarse as the normal Carhart jacket. The Columbia one has a lot of nice features, and I think that I am going to like it.

I don't know. I can say this about it the quality is top shelf, light but rugged, I don't would find it hard to ever snag or rip the suit. JC

Sorry, but I'm not sure. It appears tough enough that it can be easily put on and taken off with sufficient stretch that it won't rip. As for heating it up, I will never know what effect that has !

Hmmm I am a big guy about 220lbs and around 6ft sooo depends, but I'd say it feels heavier than most and almost too hot for me which is good on those below 0 days... def not for the fall

It's a bit heavy but that just means you are covered well. the weight will not bother you much but the warmth might. I do not mid it at all. It moves well and seems to gather the local surroundings well. It is very hard to be seen in this suit. Instant cover. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this suit for paintball/air-soft, theme parties/scarring people, and for military bush use, as it is strong material. I have had a few this one is the best by a LONG SHOT. (wink).

The material is a nearly perfect and very lightweight (6.14 ounce fabric weight) 65/35 polyester/cotton, breathable durable ripstop blend that feels very comfortable against your skin. However, the only stretch is in the action waist band but nothing in the actual fabric.These shorts are also nearly wrinkle free after washing and dry fairly quickly when wet. They are great for wear in the subtropical climate that I work and live in. If you are looking for something heavier say a canvas material for cooler climates that do make a 8.5 oz. canvas cargo short that may be better that environment. Hope this helps!

I really don't recall...I'd say approx 8~9 lbs to say the least...it was QUITE heavy/hot for me, can't STAND the heat that generates. My daughter has it now, happy with it. I got a summer weight one and much happier with it. If you're reasonably healthy w/o major medical issues...and not feeling cold all the time. I'd get a lighter weight ones, i.e. spring or summer weight.

6', 210lbs and it fits well, sleeves extend a little longer to cover a glove gauntlet (love that).Definitely not a summer jacket- be prepared to sweat!

It's a little bit insulated, a lot more than the other models. It's a little like a jacket, but not down.

I don't believe it is particularly 'tough' if you are asking if it would hold up to repeated abrasive wear. It has the same texture as a windbreaker. That, combined with the reflective interior material, makes it very effective though.

It is not heavy it's actually more light to medium. It will keep you warm but not over heat you.

Sorry I'm not sure I returned it before testing it out outside in the elements. It's a beautiful jacket though!

I gave these to both my mother and mother in law for gifts. They both love them and said they do not worry about the lining. It is a rugged material, but I don't know how to describe it! I hope this helps.

As long as you're moving, much like any jacket. I rode just today while wearing it and it was 81 degrees and humid, but I was comfortable in the wind. With the liner out and the pockets and vents unzipped the air passes around you nicely, and that was riding two-up and still didn't have any problems staying comfortable.

The jacket itself is very light and warm. Those are probably for shipping purpose.

I have the jacket to my dad for a Christmas present a while ago. I don't remember. Sorry!

It doesn't feel like it is more than a pound. It is extremely light and very easy to carry. Through the years we have owned at least six beach tents and this is absolutely the best because it provides incredible protection from the sun. In the heat of the Greek sun it is actually cool inside. Plus, it is very easy to put up and take down.Our experience has been that the tent fabrics last forever but the elastic in the poles deteriorate and they are impossible or expensive to replace. Therefore, we purchased another of the same tent last month just in case Amazon stops selling them.
