It is indeed. The plan was to film it up in the Northern Corries, but the weather decided otherwise. Whilst the Pumori is waterproof, the camera we were filming with isn’t 😅
I really don't think you have answered the question of if its "Worth the investment?" The ME tupilak for example, weighs the same, uses 80d gortex pro (stronger?), and can be purchased for £375, a whopping £345 less than the Pumori. What is it you get with the Pumori that you dont have the Tupilak?, some pockets and pit zips... Rab Latok, Arcteryx Alpha, Jottnar Anda etc are all almost equivalent to this jacket and cost less.
It's worth remembering that we're basing prices on RRP and you can almost always get jackets cheaper than that. The other jackets you mention are a few years old, so we suspect there might be some price updates when new versions come out, as the cost of manufacturing these jackets has skyrocketed. Plus, it's very hard to say 'yes, it's worth the price', as this is usually a very individual choice but for the reasons outlined in the video, John thought the jacket was very good throughout this winter.
Looks like the "beach" at Loch Morlich? I was there last week.😊
