I'd love to get this piece but I don't understand why the weight is 1lb5oz when the women's Luft Hoody weighs only 12oz? Why such a big weight difference in the men's version?

Hey, The men's obviously has more material, thus weighing more. However, that is not why you see such a large difference in weights. The 12 oz weight for the women's, I believe, was taken with one of the smaller variants where this weight is based off of a size Large. So, in a women's large and a men's large of this hoody, your weights will be much closer.
