I don’t really know much about Norrona to be honest. For that price I’d personally rather check out Columbia or Mec or Mountain Warehouse. Also their claim of it being “windproof” irks me, as nothing that light can really be windproof unless it’s goretex or something. But again, I don’t know that brand well and can’t really speak for it
Edit: it’s probably not a bad choice if you’re wearing it under a shell. Also check out North Face Thermoballs. You can catch them on sale for around the same price

I'm going to keep an eye out for the Thermoball jackets as they seem very interesting in design and material, but I just realized that Eddie Bauer makes some nice stuff as well - and often they have a 50% discount code running around.
Men's Ignitelite Reversible Jacket | Eddie Bauer this has a 40% discount currently.
https://www.mec.ca/en/product/5052-2...rn-Lite-Jacket this is also looking pretty good as a deal from MEC. Though 100g insulation seems to be too warm, perhaps.
