How warm is this coat? What temperatures is this jacket designed for?

No to be quite honest, I want to try and wear it during the winter time but it just doesn't give you the warmth of a sweater. Quite wind resistant though would recommend for climate for 50 degrees and up but anything below and it'll have you shivering.

It is one layer, like a shirt. Not very warm unless you layer up beneath it.

It appears to be a standard BDU jacket. I think it would be ok for early spring and late fall weather. I don't think it is designed for severely cold weather.

It's a BDU coat. It is designed to be worn in warm weather and in cool or cold weather to be worn over other layers of clothing. It is not insulated. It's like a shirt made from heavy material.

Pretty warm. I'm fairly comfortable, but my husband says it's too hot. We live in San Diego, CA...coldest it gets is low 40s. We only use in the fall/winter.

Not sure I understand the question.As I understand it,it is worn under parka or shell jacket not zipped to it.I wear mine under a EMS shell jacket and I've not been cold even in the crazy cold weather we're having in Ma.Hope that helped.

My husband says that it holds the heat in the rain in fall and spring. He has never worn it in the winter. I have a Marmot as well and agree wholeheartedly. Our daughter also wears one and agrees with us. It is much warmer than any other rain jacket we have worn.

I live in the Pacific Northwest... not too cold, but LOTS of rain. It is made out of water repellent canvas (not rubber)and quilted material underneath, so unlike the former respondent... I'd say, "Yes, it IS breathable", or it'd be WAY to warm to wear in our mild winters. I like this coat, and bought a second one so the first one can dry out on rainy days.

The hood isn't removable and it is a warm jacket but if you are in weather below 35 a liner will keep you warm.

This doesn't zip inside the parka, it's meant to be worn as the layer right underneath. It's a high-quality fleece - under a ecws parka it'll keep you warm.

It's a little bit insulated, a lot more than the other models. It's a little like a jacket, but not down.

I only wear it when it's really cold, cause I'm the same way. It does seem "breathable" though. We had a really cold snowy winter last year and I wore it sleigh riding a few times, and I sweat even when it's freezing out. I really do like the coat a lot.

I find it to be plenty warm enough on it's own for work days (in the car before it warms up, walking to and from the car, etc). For outdoor activities I like to layer with a sweatshirt, fleece or sweater for added warm. The slim profile of the jacket vs the huge puffy down made my decision for me. I'm willing to sacrifice a bit of warmth for the reduced bulk.

Not really a problem, and I was a bit surprised, as I wore it on cold days riding my bike. It was fine at 40 F.

Pretty close.The jacket needs to fit close so the heat is close to the body. I am 5' 9" and 160 lbs. I ordered a large for myself since my shoulders are broad and I don't like a tight fit in a coat. It fit great, plenty of room and this thing WORKS! Out on a job the other day in Charlotte and it was 8 degrees for the high and my body never got cold. I'm impressed.

It's probably perfect for commuting since it's very warm but not bulky like most Down coats. I wear it outdoors until its below zero then you need something warm underneath it.

No it isn't, it's actually a Faux Shearling fleece coat, but it is warm...Both My Pit Pup, Cody & Yorkie, Swiper have 1, it keeps them warm in WA. state during the cold winters...

I find it as warm as a medium fill down parka, but not quite as warm as a really high fill sub arctic rated down parka. It serves me well pn MOST winter days, all but the most frigid (below zero )

I live in Northern Michigan. I will wear a fleece or sweatshirt under the coat. The coat is lightweight and not bulky. Perfect for errands, snow shoveling, walking the dog. Have worn it on very windy days at soccer tournaments at 40 degrees and it was very toasty. Not for standing out on a frozen lake for ice fishing. Wearing it to sit in a very cold ice arena today. The perfect coat for me, but we are all different. I do not like bulky coats that feel like I am wearing a marshmallow.

My husband uses it as a summer jacket. We live in the desert. It gets over 100 F
