I was looking for something I could use as a third layer but also layer below another jacked when it gets colder. The jacket itself is surprisingly warm and the grid fleece is really comfortable. My complaint is the sizing, it is way off; I am size small and this thing fits like a medium. Arms are about 1.5 to 2 inches too long and shoulders are quite wide. The DWR isn't very effective either, I took it out in a like drizzle for a few mins and the fabric just absorbed the moisture. I am still holding onto it but more as a backup or car camping beater than a performance hoody for backpacking. For reference, I am 5'7" and other clothing like the MH Polartec Power Grid half zip fit me perfectly.
