Gigantic hood
Love having this jacket in my running pack as an emergency layer or for windy ridges. However, the hood is comically large. I get that this is so they're helmet compatible, but I do find that the hood splays out and exposes quite a bit of your neck when it's down (rather than standing more upright). The sleeves are also super long. Not the first BD piece I've owned with strange proportions in the women's clothing (doesn't seem to be as much an issue in the mens clothing ....)

Schoeller
This is a great jacket. Any item made with Schoeller fabric will have a great weight to warmth ratio and enough weatherproofing to handle a brisk hike in light rain. The minimal features is a plus. This a daily wear piece especially in the early morning mountains, fall and spring.
