A nice jacket for outdoor activities

It is a nice javktet perfect for outdoor activities in automn as in winter (have not tried it yet rest of the year) Pros: -Good wind shield -Good adaptibility to the weather (never got cold in it nor too hot) -Good breathability -Keeps warm even if the jacket is wet. -Perfect under a hardshell Cons -If you are thin like me but tall enough, it'll be hard to find the perfect fit. (I am 6"1 and weight 65kg, bought a XL (the length of the jacket is perfect but it is a little bit too large for me, even with the adjustment which makes a little bit of wind enter the jacket) -Lastly,the jacket isn't sufficiently waterproof. It is good enough for a slight rain, but not more. Good luck looking for your jacket and have a nice season!

So comfortable!

I like this jacket so much, I wear it inside the house too. Glad I ordered a size larger so I can wear extra layers when it is really cold outside. I could wear my other warmer jackets but those are not as breathable as this jacket.

Do you like comfort? Then come get some.

It's an amazing hoodie. Supremely comfortable, with an amazing ability to regulate body temp. I intended it to be for when I go out winter hiking, but now I wear it EVERY. DAY. The main zipper came un-sewed, or tore free from body of the hoodie right in the center on the wearer's right. It didn't slow me down, since I own a sewing machine. I think it was probably a fluke and even WITH that fault, I consider it a 5-star garment.

Refuge Air Hoody

Bought this primarily for ski touring. Skinned up a local hill yesterday, ambient temperature was -8C. It breathed exceptionally well, and cut the wind well enough at the top that I didn't freeze getting a shell on, and transitioning to downhill mode. Very pleased!

Excellent active mid layer

Excellent mid layer. Extremely quick drying and really breathable. Hood is nice and tight, thumb loop comes handy and packs relatively small in pocket. The only downside is that it is not the warmest mid jacket, ok while moving but quickly gets chilly as you stop. So probably can't be used in very cold weather or in low intensity activities.

Good Jacket, but weird fit.

This is a good jacket but the fit is very weird. The sleeves are nice and long and give you lot of movement but the fit around the chest and waist is not great, it's a really slim fit. I own several jackets from OR and the quality is as good as any of the other jackets I own and it's warm and very breathable which I appreciate when in the backcountry. OR will always be my go to for backcountry gear as I am super happy with everything I own from them.

Great winter coat for winter sport

Bought this with the intentions of wearing for cross country skiing and it is perfect for this use up to about minus 15 Celsius. Keeps you warm but not too warm

One of my favourite jackets

Wear it all the time. Perfect for fat biking or going on a mild weather snow shoe. Makes a good mid layer.
