For 2 Seasons this has been, would you believe my outermost layer while skiing (skied in 0 degrees many times so far) My skiing apparel has been made of various base layers then an NRS Kayak spray membrane jacket (about $30) and then this Vest. Between the wind stopping and the wrist and neck gaskets on the NRS jacket I've been warm and dry in all conditions, including rain. Not a bad set up for $100. This will be my set up again this year. Why drop 250 to 350 on a "ski jacket" when this does the job better!
A also wear this vest in every other season too! and still holds up.

I use this for skiing and really appreciate the snug arm holes. I can move but it keeps the wind out. The vest is also long enough (I am 6' 4" and bought a large) to keep drafts and drifts out of my pants. Definitely recommend this vest.
