Riding in the puffy jacket is one of the best feelings. It's not necessary to have more than just one layer underneath, and the extra cushion and warmth feels like you're in your sleeping bag. I don't mind hiking around in my puff either, tie it around the waist, unzip it, one sleeve it, what ever. The Verdi Plaid down was my main Jacket all year long, it has great style, pocket placement and fit.

Stylie and warm. You cant ask for anything else when youre on the slopes. Great for a day on the Ice Coast with nothing on underneath but a great t-shirt. And nothing beats it when youre standing around waiting for your buddies at the bottom of the hill.

Man this thing is warm. It has all the things you need powder skirt, hood, pockets and the lifetime warranty. Skiing in the backcountry can't be beat and you can stay dry all day even with the 3 feet of freshies that just fell. It's downfall is heating up, if your in to hiking and earning your turns you might want to tie it around your waist and wait for the ride down to sport it. Over all this jacket rocks it's got style and it's practical.

This one is really warm and light.
I like the color and the pattern very much.
Although the pockets are not as functional as my previous TNF coat; it's still a good winter coat choice.
