This is a light and warm mid-layer. It really changed my outlook on cold weather. I don't have to worry about bringing along something hooded and warm if the temps and weather are uncertain. The hood doesn't get in the way and is very useful. Feather light and deceptively warm. So good.... I bought the non-hooded version, too, for less windy days. My only regret is that they only had my least favorite color in my size.
