What does the inside of this jacket feel like?
I want to get a feel for how warm it would be. (i.e. does it have a fleeced interior? or is it more like a pure shell with little to no insulation?)

There is no bonded microfleece or insulation, just the single layer of shell fabric and it is quite lightweight. I would say it is just slightly heavier in feel than a windbreaker, but it also feels much more abrasion resistant and stretchy than any windbreaker I've had. There is just enough room to layer with a Polartec powerstretch or 100 weight fleece, if you wanted to wear it in cooler conditions, but the jacket itself isn't going to provide much warmth beyond shielding you from cold winds. Hope that helps!

It's a pure shell. There is no insulation in the Ferrosi. This thing won't insulate you, but it will help to cut the wind. If you're looking for a warmer softshell check out the OR Mithril Stormshell.
