Great jacket at a great price - Rab Nexus Jacket - Men's-Blazon-Large

I am new to serious winter endeavors, and figured a good, versatile hardshell would be a great place to start upgrading my layering system.
This jacket has been exactly what I wanted. The fit is as expected. I'm 5'9" and 190lbs, and the large has plenty of room for layering but is not too baggy.
I've used it for snow-shoeing, ski touring and resort skiing in moderate to extreme cold (-5F), and it's allowed me to stay comfortable by adjusting layers underneath. It seems to breath very well.
The fabric is nice and light, but seems sturdy, and the hood stays put on my helmet, even skiing above 40mph.
I am glad I got this and would recommend it to others.
