this is a truly fantastic one piece jacket. I've used it skiing in huge snows, cold temp -2C, and it ALWAYS keeps me warm and dry. The hood fits over a helmet well and also adjusts well for wear with out a helmet. The jacket's side vents breath well when opened so temperature reg. is decent. One word of caution is that this is a one piece jacket, wich is great for having one jacket that you throw on, but be aware that it's lines with TNF's primaloft and this jacket is WARM. I run a bit warm anyways, but boy I had this on in some 5-10C weather and was too warm when the sun was out. I was only wearing a light first layer and a mid weight Helly Hansen pollypro top and was grilling. If you're looking for a one piece jacket this is the one, if you need more versatility however and might want to wear an unlined shell on a warmer day you may want to think about TNF free thinker shell instead.
