Awesome jacket!

Ranked #649 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
January 31, 2010
Just returned from skiing with this jacket this weekend. Temps were about 2 degrees F in the morning, warming up to about 15F in the afternoon. I wore just a mid-weight Icebreaker base layer and an Arc Tau shirt and the Kappa SV. This combo kept me warm all day, if not hot during some points. Even when just sitting outside in 9F in the afternoon, I was still very comfortable. I had brought my Arc Hercules, but didn't need to break it out! :-) Luckily, it was not too windy, but I know that's not a problem for Windstopper!
Awesome jacket. Bought one for my wife as well!
