Hi there guyz,
I am about to purchase this great jacket for skiing but my main concern is that it is very light and I do not want to buy another jacket for layering.It is already quite a lot of money.
Would a base layer and a fleece or a hoody be enough

For most conditions the Theta SV with a base and 200 wt fleece is adequate. When the temps plummet you will most likely need another layer. It is a very durable fabric and can resist a lot of abrasion. If you want more of a skiing specific jacket look at the Sabre SV or stingray. They have a light fleece backing which adds a touch more of warmth and they have a powder skirt.
