As it happens, the pocket (the same problem from my first model) eventually came apart and the hood on mine actually separated after getting caught in my bag one day and I tugged on it. An awesome jacket I have to say but I'll be skeptical of all ultra-light gear from durability after this experience. You might have to carry 100 grams less up the hill but is it worth it if the gear only lasts a year or so? that's a question to decide when buying the gear :) thanks for the comment!
