Are the cuffs open on the inner jacket or elastic? Basically, would it keep snow from going up the sleeve?

They are an elastic like style. I think it would stop snow from going up the sleeve depending on how big your wrists are. I'm a smaller dude so there's a bit of room but nothing crazy. I would think that you'd be wearing gloves on top so wouldn't have to worry about the snow sneaking in there.

yes, I think it wil...I spend a portion of winter up in Nome,Alaska and snow shoe up in the Bendeleben Mountains and we have white out snow conditions all the time,and I will gladly try this jacket out...you really don't want a really tight fitting inter wrist sleeve anyway,as it restricks arm movement in a comfort manner...in White out conditions,loose fitting clothes keep you comfortable....and the insulated underwear of today is about perfect anyway

The inner sleeve of the zip out lining has a two inch knit/elastic cuff. It is a loose fit around my medium frame wrist. But generally keeps snow out. I wear a longer glove that covers my sleeve while boarding, so haven't really tested it well.

I got one for my husband, the Sleeves has only a 19'' sleeve including the cuff. He leave the cuff down, looks fine.

Yes...I bought it last fall and love it. The extra length of the parka really seals out the cold.

the jacket is the thickness of heavy fabric and the ice packets are roughly an additional 3/4" to 1" frozen flat. hope this helps. order one and see. consistent cooling and no perspiration that i see.

I find this jacket is best when it is 25-40 degrees out. It blocks the wind nicely and if you pair it with a warm scarf/hat/gloves, you could probably get away with wearing it when it's under 20 degrees.

If you remove the rubber outer layer it fits nicely. I don't have it with me now so I can't check if it holds the whole unit, but it is a very nice jacket.

It does have an internal freeze protection circuit to keep things warm inside. The folks at Rinnai Customer Service are very helpful. They may be able to address arctic conditions.

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.

The sleeves are a tad long. They have the neoprene wrist guards for use in snow and those where quite long as well. The body is sleek and form fitting with longer sleeves but they do not have any extra bulk or look out of place in anyway. It is a great light weight but warm jacket.

I had no issues with snow drifts and unit is still in fine shape. The largest open area (the top) is covered and I was advised not to fully encase a unit for possible problems with moisture when no air circulates. In short, I am very happy with this cover.

The sleeves are a little bit short; that is why I leave the cuff down. It is fine that way. The cuff adds another 4 1/2 inches to the sleeve.

Depends on how bulky the coat is - should be fine over a winter biking jacket, but probably very snug over a parka.

There is a magnet that helps keep it close, but there is no elastic or magnet to keep it open. I haven't found that to be a problem though because I am either using the hand strap or just holding it. I recommend it unless you want there to be something like you are asking about. You could always use a rubber band I guess.

The jacket has a 100% polyester lining; the silver dotted insulating kind, so it does slide on easily. It is fitted. I am a large and, over bulky sweaters, the XL is snug.

It is indeed thick which is what helps keep them feeling snug similar to the swaddling effect. I've found that dressing my daughter in just a short-sleeve onesie and no socks and keeping the temp of the room btwn 69-70 degrees all winter has worked well and she doesn't get overheated. Heat escapes through the hand and feet openings, plus her neck is still exposed for ventilation. In fact, on very cold nights I added socks while she slept when her feet seemed too cold and was grateful she was cozy in the suit. We started her in the suit at 4 months old - she's now 6 months and has slept comfortably in it every single night!

We had a lot of snow here in Upstate NY in the winter of '13/'14. I didn't have any worries about the snow accumulation on the roof. The fabric gets pulled pretty tight against the frame and allowed any accumulation over and inch to slide right off.
