Bought this to use as my evening jacket when backpacking into the mountains overnight. Needed something light, warm, and good against the wind, and this jacket performs. I read all the positive reviews, and decided to pull the trigger. Its really crazy how something this light can be so warm! It seems to protect well against the wind, but doesn't seem to be very breathable. I noticed when hiking around camp that I got pretty hot, so I won't be using it while backpacking, but that's not what I bought it for anyway. The material is very water resistant but its so lightweight that I wonder how the long-term durability will be. We'll see how it holds up to the next year of back country use.
