Great item - very useful, layer or alone

I purchased the Black Luft Down sweater with Red zippers. Although lightweight, it is warm. I like that it isn't too Michelin-man looking but keeps you warm. The red is a nice offset to the mostly black item; gives it more of a sports look.
The fleece lined pockets are welcome and the fact that they are on the inside of the down means you have the option of skipping the gloves if you are just running around as the pockets keep your hands very comfortable.
On dry cool/cold days I wear it alone, and on very chilly wet days I use it under a shell.
6'2", 155lbs, athletic build - ordered the large. Not too bulky and the sleeves are long enough b/c of the built in wind cuffs.
