“Compact, warm -- not superwarm”

“I wanted a warm jacket to wear underneath my snowboarding shell. This is perfect, as it's warm, soft and not bulky. Kept me warm all-day on our recent trip, and seemed to deal well with perspiration and snow. Now, it's not another North Face Nuptse- like others have commented, it doesn't make you look like the Michelin Man, but it isn't overwhelming warm either. Works best with a shell on top. I ordered red and black in small (i wear size 4) and chose black. Red is deeper and more wine red than the picture might appear. Overall, very happy with the purchase.”
