Great jacket, warm, only worn it a couple of times. The first was out of the shop as it was a really cold day and the jacket I had wasn’t cutting it as it was too cold to have it on so I decided to buy a new jacket and keep warm. The thing I like about this jacket is it doesn’t take much to get warm and keep warm, due to the choice of fabrics and linings. The removable faux-fur rim I keep on it as I think it’s another layer of insulation; also it would keep the snow and rain away from your face.
The only thing I find that could be better on this jacket is a rear scoop at the rear of the jacket to keep your lower back really warm, but keeping the clinch cords at the hem tight will do the job as well, if you don’t like this the McMurdo would be the way to go. Other than that the 8 pockets will keep allot of your gear, although the sleeve pocket may not carry much in my opinion. I would say this jacket is a good investment.
