Is this jacket warm enough for the cold weather? It seems thin for a down jacket.

Hi - I really depends on what type of cold weather you are talking about. I live in Salt Lake, and a 550 fill jacket is just fine here unless you spend a ton of time in the mountains around here, in which case I would probably bump up to a 700 fill jacket. If you are in a colder climate, I might check out one of the following for a little extra insulation: -The North Face Destiny Down Jacket -The North Face Nuptse Jacket -The North Face Amore Down -The North Face Helicity Down Jacket I think any of these would be good options for something with more down insulation that the Aconcagua Jacket. Hope this helps-
