simple light weight layer

I've used this for skinning, XC skiing, and biking. It is fine for aerobic activity in 20-30F temps. It works well when you want a light outer layer to handle minor precipitation, it is fairly water resistant. In terms of sheer warmth, there's not a ton. A good fleece or a backup layer is useful if you stop moving or elements worsen. The key to remember is that this is a shirt, not a really a jacket.
