Wore this on the Rainer summit push after I realized I forgot my parka in the car. To my surprise I stayed perfectly warm in sub 20 degrees W/25+ wind gusts.
I’m a bit hard on gear, but I keep coming back to this. Way better than Patagonia’s version. Perfect stretch, highly packable, warmth to weight ratio is fantastic. Think about weather you need a hood. For skiing I go hoodless, everything else, hooded. Get one of each. You won’t regret it.
