Hi everyone, I am looking to get my dad a nice light weight and warm jacket. I have the Fitz Roy which I love but it's too puffy for him.
My questions/concerns:
1. Is this jacket warm enough for -20 degree C or -4 degree F with windchill. We normally get around -10 --> -15 degree C without windchill here.
2. My dad hates to layer. At most he would were is a simple thin sweater and it would be for casual uses (in/out of car, walk around town)
Thanks in advance for any help.

Harold, that sounds about how I wear this jacket. Say between 10F to 40F, I might get away with a T-shirt, sometimes with a henley or thin sweater like your dad. 10F and lower though a sweatshirt is pretty standard for me underneath it. You'll be surprised how windproof this jacket is, I know I was. So windchill isn't too big of a deal. I would say if your dad is just looking for a jacket to bomb around town in doing errands and whatnot, its perfect. I really like this jacket. Its quite versital.
