Took this soft shell out to the ski slopes in New Mexico and performed very well. I was very pleased with the soft shell material and not an ounce of water/snow penetrated the jacket! Although the jacket is not windproof, the soft shell kept me very warm with the help of a combination of base layers. Two to be exact. One light, which had a longer turtle neck feel, and a medium weight layer. The average temperature for our trip was about freezing the whole time and as long as I kept slightly active, I felt great. I purchased the slate grey and received many compliments on the zipper to jacket contrast. The layout of the zippers is another cool aspect of the jacket. They are placed just where you most need them! If I could add anything to this jacket, it would be and inside security pocket and maybe some velcro on the sleeves...but that was fixed with the gloves and all. Other that what I mentioned, this jacket is an awesome buy with its great performance and stylish looks!
