This is not a shell jacket, you do not need any puffy down jackets under it. Its a bomb proof insulated jacket. I own this for the cold days and own an arcteryx for the layring days.

I disagree, I just bought this bomb proof jacket and think it should be fine with just a light base layer. Its a very warm jacket, just try to put a puffy down mid layer under it, you will roast and feel like the stay puff marsh mellow man too. This jacket has insulation, its not a shell. I have an arcteryx too, that one I use for layering. Awsume NF jacket thouh...

In those types of conditions you are probably still going to want to wear some type of midlayer with this jacket. If you are looking for something that you don't need to layer with, I would recommend The North Face Verdi Down II jacket- this has enough insulation so that you won't need to wear anything more than a lightweight baselayer. Hope this helps-
