From RockCreek:
"The Redpoint Optimus Jacket by The North Face is by far one of their most successful jackets they make for the cold weather athlete. A classic design, made with Primaloft One, an ultrafine, lightweight, and water repellent insulation. Primaloft is excellent in cold, precipitous environments because it keeps your core warm and your body safe from cold, but it also stays 24% warmer when wet than other insulations. The Redpoint Optimus is just as good as a down coat, but has the synthetic advantages to wet weather.If you are going to be in snow, high altitude rains or any sort of humid conditions, this is the jacket you will want to take with you."
From Backcountry.com:
"Zip up The North Face Men's Redpoint Optimus Insulated Jacket for frigid belays, icy backcountry ski tours, or just a chilly trip to the grocery store. This PrimaLoft insulated coat features an elasticized hood and seamless yoke and shoulders for a performance fit in any conditions. A DWR coating repels wet snow and spindrift, and the jacket stows inside its internal chest pocket when you stuff it back into your pack. Elastic cuffs and a hem cinch cord help seal out the storm."

With an attached adjustable hood, a water resistant coating, and seamless yoke and shoulders you can really hunker down and stay warm when necessary, but will be comfortable carrying a pack when the schedules demands proceeding."

The jacket is extremely lightweight and somewhat thin, yet will insulate far beyond expectations. Last night I went for a walk in about -5 F temps and I was perfectly warm."
