Our Verdict
The Mammut Rime Light IN Flex Hooded Jacket is a versatile layer that delivers warmth and flexibility. Weighing just 340 grams in a medium size, this hybrid jacket packs a lot of performance into a lightweight package, making it an excellent choice for those who need dependable insulation without the bulk.
One of the standout features of this jacket is its hybrid construction. The combination of body-mapped Loop insulation and Polartec® Power Grid® fleece offers a well-balanced mix of warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement. Whether scaling a steep ridge or layering up for a chilly morning hike, the jacket adapts to your activity level, keeping you comfortable without overheating.
The material feels soft and light, yet thanks to its PFC-free DWR treatment, it's robust enough to withstand wind and light moisture. The fitted hood, designed to fit under a helmet, adds another layer of practicality for climbers and alpine adventurers. I found the hood snug yet not restrictive, which is ideal when you need to keep your head protected without sacrificing mobility.
In terms of usability, the Rime Light IN Flex impresses with its thoughtful details. The two harness-compatible side pockets are spacious enough for essentials, and the inner pocket is perfect for securing valuables. The jacket can be packed into its own pocket, making it easy to stow away when not in use.
The elastic hem and cuffs ensure a snug fit, preventing cold air from sneaking in. The overall fit is comfortable without being overly tight—great for layering. The jacket’s low packing volume and lightweight design make it an excellent companion for multi-day trips where space is at a premium.
