The warmth of this jacket would be managed by the layers you put underneath it. As mentioned below, the Beryillium Jacket and the Escape Jacket are both shells made with fabrics from Gore. The Beryillium is made with a Gore Proshell fabric (extremely durable and light) and the Escape Jacket is made with Gore Performance Shell Fabric for more general use (Rain, Ski, Hike etc.) Hope this helps!

They are both similar in the warmth aspect, but keep in mind they are both just outer shells and are only good by them selves to about 40 degrees. The Beryllium is just made out of a better and liter material for less weight, hints the extra 200$.
