From Patagonia.com:
"Inspired more by winter whiteouts than sunshine, our Winter Sun combines the best attributes of high-loft insulation and a breathable soft shell for use in full-on conditions. The double-weave 100% polyester shell (45% recycled) has exceptional water- and wind-resistance, the stitch-free seams improve wet-weather performance, and the 100-g PrimaLoft Eco insulation provides superior compressibility and warmth, even if it gets wet. A hidden stretch panel across the upper back enhances mobility, and reinforcements line the sides. Pockets: one internal security, two handwarmers, two bellows chest and one arm. Low-profile self-fabric cuffs and a drawcord hem."

From Backcountry.com:
"Combine a stretchy softshell with high-loft synthetic insulation and you have a warm, functional shell layer for active winter pursuits. More specifically, you have the Patagonia Men's Winter Sun Jacket. From athletic ski tours to a few pitches of waterfall ice, the Winter Sun's stitch-free shell resists wind and water while a hidden stretch panel on the back increases mobility. The PrimaLoft Eco insulation warms even when wet and makes for high compressibility when it's in your pack."

"This is really a fantastic jacket. . . except it's not quite as warm as I hoped it would be.

It's beautifully designed and really well made. Tons of great features. It's a soft shell jacket with insulation. The insulation is something comparable to Primaloft but it's called something else ("climashield green")."
