It is a highly windproof, highly waterproof, highly breathable shell, there is no insulation. Despite being able to handle extreme conditions, it breaths so well you can actually walk around with it during the summer as a rain jacket. The exterior is very tough, durable fabric but the jacket is not stiff, it is very flexible and moves with you very well.

I was was on the lake on top of a levee on a bike path taking a ride, it was 26F, the wind was blowing 15-20 mph, I had on a Tesla Compression Shirt, a light Helly Hansen insulating shirt and this jacket and pant. It was not only bearable it was totally comfortable with no clammy feeling at all. It worked great.

At this sale price this jacket is a steal.
