Looking for a mid-weight jacket. 

Ideally synthetic, two way zip for climbing and kit harness, two large internal pockets for keep gloves or climbing shoes warm. 

My Mammut jacket that fits the bill is falling apart and I can’t find a replacement. 

Any recommendations?

You could just get any jacket with the two way zip and get pockets sewn in.  (or do it yourself) It's the sort of thing alpkit would do for a small fee.

Not a bad idea, it certainly opens up the possibilities.

Alpkit 0hiro would have fit the bill, but now discontinued. I'm sure they must have an alternative.

The Black Diamond stance belay parka fits the bill, lovely and warm too, might be worth looking at the belay hoodie which is less warm but very similar

Bit of a different option but check out the MIG jacket from Carinthia. It's really warm, durable and has plenty in the way of pockets. Only available in green though. I've just got one and it's honestly immense.

The Apogee is the current equivalent. Looks like a good bit of kit for £160.

Rab Photon X maybe?

You could always use a lanyard/bandolier type sling to attach gloves and shoes to so you can just hang them, means you can reposition them if required and also then use any jacket

Obviously depends if they have hanging loops on them!
