"Exactly what I was looking for" - Review of Patagonia Core Skin Jacket - Men's

It has just enough wind resistance to work as an outer layer while skinning uphill, and it's warm enough to work as a mid layer for the downhill. It has Velcro cuffs so you can put your fleece gloves on easily, and an awesomely fuzzy neck that closes tight. It has a wind flap behind the front zipper, a longer cut with a draw cord hem, and well designed sleeves that eliminate lift-up. It's made by a fantastic American company, at a price that's hard to beat. It's damn near perfect... perhaps the only drawbacks are that the stitching is overly complicated, the wrist closers are bulky, and it would be nice if the pocket zips were 3in longer to double as core vents. I'm going to send Patagonia an email about the core skin; it's really hard to find, and they had better make it again next year.
