This is my first purchase of an OR product. I could not be happier. This jacket was much cheaper then any Columbia, Marmot or North Face, yet better quality.  I have friends that own the columbia version (well as close as they come) this jacket has a better feel. It is amazingly light, yet really warm.  The really great thing is its not a HOT jacket, it will keep your body temp perfect when it is 30 deg or 0 deg. I have not yet tried it in sub zero weather. The jacket runs a tad small if you are planning on wearing laying under it.  I am 5'8" and about 160 lbs and had to exchange a medium for a large.
