Is this jacket warm enough for New England winter?

This is a good warm weather jacket for biking or hiking. In cold New Orleans weather it is a good wind breaker. Its main function for us is as a raincoat. It is a good raincoat or a good second layer for bikiing when the temp is in the 50s. It does not provide any real winter warmth. I have lived in Maine. This would be a summer coat.

By itself, no. It's just a thin layer of waterproof material (which keeps me 100% dry) but it's not really designed for being a warm jacket...now if you put it over something else you should be good

This is a raincoat only. A shell. IT works very well in the rain but wouldn't keep you warm beyond a 50 degree day. My husband loves it! Just not fur winter.

Well, we were using it in the New England winter, and found it too warm as spring came. Everyone is different though so it may work for you.

I have not had it in winter,but although light in weight it is going to be warm with a light blanket under it.

Yes..it's more of a full cut jacket. Check out the review on outdoorgearlab.

The jacket itself is very light and warm. Those are probably for shipping purpose.

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.

Im 6' 200 lbs i own a size large and it fits great although if you plan on layering you might want an XL, but i wear a long sleeve and hoodie with the large bibs and jacket and i have no prob. Most of the time no house. So pretty warm stuff.

I live in the midwest and have worn this coat into temps down to -10, -25 with the wind chill. Without wind, keeping lightly active (walking my dogs), wearing layers beneath it, and staying out of the direct wind, I have been kept comfortably warm. If you are more active (skiing or snowshoeing) you should stay quite warm. The jacket does not block wind very well, so if you are in windy conditions I do not think it would be enough unless you wore some sort of windbreaker over it, but I'm not sure about trying to fit it under something else. I have worn a thick wool sweater under it without any problems.

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.

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.

Yes it is...tried this jacket in heavy snow in Europe last year and heavy rain in Costa Rica...no issues at all...

Not at all--I usually wear either a medium or large in a coat, and ordered a large based on reviews. It is big enough to wear a jacket or sweatshirt or sweater underneath with plenty of room. I am not big chested so that may be a factor also.

The jacket is pretty thin so it doesn't provide very much additional warmth. It is water tight and pretty wind resistant so it does cut down a bit on wind chill, but the jacket is no substitute for layering or a heavier coat if you plan on using it in cold temperatures.

I would think so.. It was warmer than a standard grade comforter in my experience.

I live in Michigan and I dress in layers (flannel shirt over hoodie over sweatshirt over long sleeve t-shirt) when it is cold outside. When the temp is in the 30 degree range it MIGHT be somewhat snug.
