Trim fit | Size & Fit Guide
Lots of high elevation passes on this next trip? Cooler temps in the forecast? Maybe you’re looking to spend the day at camp, or just can’t seem to stay warm out there. Sounds like a warmer UL puffy is beckoning.
The Katabatic Tincup is designed, shaped, and filled to amp up the warmth while maintaining the thoughtful details of our Tarn. With fill-to-weight ratios averaging over 48%, the Tincup will make the list for all your chillier adventures. Check out all the features and details in the tabs below.
Trim fit: Designed for use over a light baselayer or midlayer. If you are near the cusp on sizes and would like to be able to use it over a warmer/bulkier layer, or prefer a roomier fit, you’ll want to size up.
| Small | Medium | Large | X-Large | |
| Total Weight | 9.7 oz | 10.4 oz | 11.2 oz | 12.3 oz |
| Fill Weight | 4.6 oz | 5.0 oz | 5.5 oz | 6.1 oz |
This has become my go-to puffy for winter mountaineering. As light as my Patagonia down but warmer, lighter than my parka but almost just as warm. Wish the hood was a bit bigger but otherwise love this puffy.
I love this jacket. As with all Katabatic Gear products, it's high quality and well-made. I've found myself putting this jacket on nearly every time I leave the house this winter. It's a very effective insulating layer and if I wear it while exercising vigorously, it's not uncommon for me to overheat, even when temps are in the single digits.
In terms of the fit, I bought a size larger than what I normally wear so that I had plenty of room to layer underneath. It's a tiny bit bigger than I'd prefer but not excessively so.
Worth noting is the excellent warmth-to-weight ratio of this jacket. It's also very reasonably priced compared to similar products. This is the lightweight insulated jacket I've been waiting for and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!
This is the toastiest warmest puffy I’ve ever worn. It keeps me comfortably warm in sub zero temps. Wore it in -16 degree weather the other day and felt cozy!
For reference I am 5’6 and 135 lbs and got a medium. It was roomy enough to layer underneath. I could have sized smaller and it would have probably been form fitting but preferred a looser fit
The jacket is super lightweight, I can never tell if I actually packed it 🤣 For how light it is, it’s very durable. I’ve stuffed it in my backcountry ski pack alongside my avi gear, my dog has burrowed into it, and it’s already gone thru the wash a few times. Still performing amazing!
I received my women's XL Tin Cup just before the recent cold snap into the single digits. This is a great jacket! It is even warmer than any other comparable jacket I own and blocks wind better. Best of all, it packs down really small. I also like the length in the back and that it is a little more fitted so I don't look like the Michelin woman. Since this is Katabatic's first jacket, I would change these things. Elastic at the end of the cuffs and not under them. This keeps my natural skin oils from darkening the fabric when the fabric brushes my arms and hands. A deeper hood. I sleep in mine when it is cold and like pulling down the hood. The current hood or wearing a climbing helmet is too shallow for this hood. Overall though, one of the warmest jackets available right now, and I also have a FF Eos and Ghost.
Great fabric, super toasty, really well thought out hood. I love this jacket. My only complaint is that the hips are too small by a significant margin. I am 5'7", 142 lbs. The rest of the jacket fits perfectly. Hoping that the next iteration has more room in the hips/butt.
