I hike in a Schoeller Dryskin jacket, but usually throw on my Patagonia Retro-X (windproof heavyweight fleece, yet only 20 oz.) at or near the summit. It breathes enough and warms enough to help purge some ar all of the moisture from the climb. I'll often keep it on for the duration of a jaunt above treeline, like Algonquin to Iroquois and back, Marcy, Gray, and Skylight, etc. then send it back to the pack when I'm below 3000' or so. Though often I'll wear it back out to the car, where I'm already damp and not pumping out the heat factor like on a climb.
I do like the gloves too, especially the convertible mittens. Hats are good, except the earflap ones can give me a weird pressure build up in my ears. Don't know what that's all about?
