Is the West Bend II warm enough on its own?

For mild days, yes. In real cold it works better as a midlayer under a shell or puffer, since the fleece is light and has no wind protection.

It runs roomy through the body and sleeves. If you want a closer fit or plan to wear it over just a tee, consider sizing down.

No. It is a hoodless full-zip fleece, so pair it with a hat or a hooded shell in wet or windy weather.

Can it go in the washer and dryer?

Yes, machine wash cold and tumble dry low. Skip bleach, ironing and dry cleaning, which damage the fleece.

No. The polyester fleece absorbs light drizzle and offers no windproofing, so it is a dry-weather layer.

Just the jacket. It ships as a single fleece with no bag or accessories.
