I wore the jacket around the neighborhood today. It was 45° and the wind was out of the NW at about 20mph. So it felt a lot chiller that it was. I'd say a real feel of more like 30° or less. The jacket does a great job of not letting the wind thru because of the non- sew thru design, elastic cuffs and the below the waist length. I wore a ls cotton pullover and a cotton "wife beater" T under that. I was warm.
The jacket has a nice feel, great fit and nice deep hood. I'm 6' and usually hoover around 160 lbs, so I'm what I would call a slim athletic build. I'm normally a large in most things but I went by the reviews I read and followed the size chart on EEs website and ordered the medium. Perfect with room to layer underneath without being binding. It compacts well as you can see in the picture, if I was to use both hands I could get it smaller. Not as compact as a similar down jacket but very very close. The workmanship on the jacket is excellent. I'm very happy with my purchase.
