It is an excessively warm jacket... without being too puffy. It is for low temperatures, for very cold winter. It is waterproof and delicate. It is a bit "hard" like fabric on the outside (due to waterproofing) but in front of the warmth it provides, you overlook it. Also, the zippers are very high quality and you don't need a hat or scarf, the hood of the jacket fits so well around the face and has a high "neck", resulting in no trace of cold entering. A reputable company.
