This garment exceeded expectations. Originally, I bought one as heavier underlayer to use instead of my North Face poly. After wearing it, I had to go back and get another one b/c it was so great. I use it as a heavier base layer but also as a lighter second layer. The fit is fantastic and my North Face polys are collecting dust now. It breaths, wicks, and does all the tricks. Only down side is it does get that poly smell more than some items, but despite what other reviewers suggest, all the wool bases make me itch and sweat. So Delta, you rock!

While it looks good, this item is not nearly as warm as the company suggests it is. In fact, I don't find that it does a very good job of insulating at all. I've ended up relegating it to the warmer days that I'm just running errands around town. For serious activity, I turn to my Arc'teryx gear. While it may be a bit more expensive, it is more than worth it.

I've always thought a garment like this wouldn't keep me warm enough, but boy was I wrong. This is the perfect spring jacket, and it can also double as an under layer for my Arc'teryx stingray jacket. It's amazingly comfortable, has surprisingly roomy pockets, and it looks terrific. I couldn't be happier.

This works even better than I had thought it would. Unique fabric and weave. Very warm, yet breathable on those days when I overdress. If it had been available in medium, I probably would have gone for it instead of the small, but in a way the tighter fit might just work better. I can still fit my Arc'teryx Delta underneath it on cold days. Also like the side zipper, which keeps my chin cozy.

This winter, I've turned into a real Arc'teryx fan. This is the best ski jacket I've ever owned. It has amazing construction: the perfectly taped seams keep the wind and snow out, and yet the garment breathes. It's comfortable, practical, resists dirt, and it's also stylish! For the first time I've found a jacket that combines practicality with style. In combination with my other Arc'teryx under garmetns, I'm ready for any winter weather, hot or cold, inbounds or backcountry. A total winner!!
