Is this jacket alright for jogging in the winter time? Also, is this suitable for walking to classes, work, and other places? I want to find a jacket that is versatile enough to shed some rain, keep me reasonably warm (30-60 degrees, I can also throw on a base layer), and is fashionable enough. Is this alright for casual use? I don't mind the lack of pockets. I usually am going back and forth from different social events tied in with college. Also, are either of the blue colors navy? It's hard to tell what they look like in person from the photos.

I think this jacket would be great for what you describe. The material is much thinner than I expected but is surprisingly warm. I have worn it was a mid layer under a shell when skiing and as a light jacket pretty much all the time. Running, mountain biking, spring skiing, it's sweet. It is my go to jacket and pretty much wear it 3 or 4 days a week.
