This jacket is soft, fits well and certainly keeps you warm. I've worn it out when its been trickling outside and stayed dry. The hood is especially nice because it hugs to your face and really helps keep the wind out. It looks kinda funny with the hood on, but who cares when you're toasty and everyone else is freezing. I would however add a couple of things. 1. an internal pocket/stuff sack for storage. and 2 a compartment to squish the hoodie into, to make it a collared jacket. I've also see similar jackets where the collar is separate from the hood, and the hood rolls into a zippered compartment around the collar, that would be nice. But as far as the quality of the materials made, it's great. Very soft as previous people have said, and quite warm.
