The new Torres Sleeves are a radical idea, providing really fast warmth for minimal weight. Warming the arms alone is really speedy and hassle free with real benefits for whole body warmth and for maintaining dexterity in the fingers. They provide rapid ‘on the move’ warmth in situations where conventional mid-layers are difficult and impractical to use. The Sleeves are overlayered to give fast block insulation when needed, with an effective impact on whole body temperature. The moisture-repellent 133g synthetic fill delivers a high warmth-for-weight ratio, even when wet.  Average weight: 226g.
