- Is it warm enough for below-freezing weather?
- With a fleece or midlayer underneath, most owners stay comfortable near and below freezing. It is synthetic fill, so it is less warm for its weight than a down parka.
- Is it fully waterproof?
- The shell is waterproof and windproof with a membrane and taped seams. It handles rain and wet snow well, though it is not a substitute for a dedicated mountaineering shell on exposed alpine trips.
- How does the fit run?
- It runs long by design, covering the hips and upper legs. Several buyers say it runs large, so consider sizing down if you want a closer fit.
- Can the hood be removed?
- Yes, the hood is detachable, and the high collar still covers the neck when it is off.
- Is it good for everyday wear or only hiking?
- It works for both. The long cut and plain black look suit commuting and city wear, while the waterproof shell and pockets handle trail use.
- What is it made of?
- A polyester shell with a waterproof, windproof membrane, synthetic filling and a fleece lining. It is not down.
