I currently ski in a Orage Logan (mid/lightly insulated) jacket.
I want to move to a much more athletic looking jacket so that it's form fitting. I'm really interested in this shell.

I'd run this shell + Norrona 360 polartec fleece + midweight baselayer underneath.

I'm pretty concerned I'm going to be cold on lifts in Colorado on those cloudy sub 20 degree windy days.

Any thoughts on this?
(As a side note, I don't want to buy the insulated bombshell because I want to use this as a rain shell in the shoulder seasons as well.)

Also, is this jacket as fitted as it sounds/looks? I want that Euro-skier look :)

Thanks!

i use this shell in colorado most days. if it is brutally cold i will switch out for a down puffy, but almost all the time a base layer, and insulation layer will do for me. there isnt any insulation on the shell. it blocks the elements, which is all i ask from a shell. the fit is athletic cut, but not super tight. i find it the perfect balance of effective movement without too much material slowing you down. this is my most loved shell, it does everything i ask, and adds nothing i do not need.
