There's lots lighter... Including the icebreaker 150's. Basically same thing...but slightly thinner weave.

But anything lighter won't be as warm

No problem with it, just wondered if there was anything lighter; it weighs 8.1 ounces.  I've had it for a while and thought I'd see if there was anything new out there that I should check.
