Is it enough for winter in Minnesota? I am considering wearing it for commuting. If not good enough, could you recommend other clothes?

It's an awesome jacket. Minnesota gets pretty darn cold so you'd probably want a layer under the jacket. May be a fleece.

Depends on what you're wearing ;)It would be too warm for summer, but I'd say it's adequate for spring/fall colder nights.

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.

I returned the coat, but my impression was that it would work well for temperatures in the 40s and 50s, possibly similar to a good sweater, but light and silky. I have a light down jacket from Costo (Calvin Klein). It is good in these temps, as well as indoors when it is too cold. I have a thicker, Patagonia street jacket which I think is more comfortable when you are getting down around freezing or below. I love the Calvin Klein for our north coast of California temperatures, but it is not as good a quality jacket, so I am speculating. The Marmot might be warmer. If I were to reorder it, and wanted it for cold temps, I would get it bigger and layer it.

I think it would be great because of how light it is. It's also a great windbreaker. I don't think you'd get too hot.

I believe it is to a degree. It fleece, but I typically wear it with a hood in the snow. I imagine you'd be fine unless you went out in the rain .

It's fine for the Pacific Northwest, in fact too warm during the early fall, but perfect during winter. Good luck with your decision!

I am just shy of 6ft tall and have the 2XL long. If you are a thin person I would recommend the medium. If you are a bit larger build, I would recommend a size large or even extra large depending on what the size around, that needs to be covered. I am not a small person and the 2 XL long is more than large enough for me. The jacket is fairly lightweight and I would not recommend it for very cold weather. Other than that, it is a great jacket and very durable. Mine still looks almost new and it is the jacket I wear way more than any other jacket I have.

My husband wears it for riding a scooter in cold temperatures and the scooter makes for a windy ride. I think you'd be in good shape.

That means it is very warm and good for winter. I really like this Item. It confortable and warm like for a motor. You should buy it!

No, not too warm, wear it under in very cold weather; wear it under in cool weather, like layers.

Ah, I see you look at similar things as I do before you purchase, good for you. Check it out first. Yes, this comforter is definitely thick enough to warm in winter, and yet a cool enough fabric to leave on the bed all year. I had it on mine all spring & summer, and it was quite comfortable.

It's great just get one size bigger than you normally would and you'll have enough room for 2 thinner or 1 thick layer underneath. Its very lightweight. I'm not sure about how warm it is in extreme cold though because I just bought it.

Hi I wore it all winter in Wisconsin, but needed to have layers. My son plays hockey and it worked well for that but if I was going to be outside for a bit I needed something a bit heavier. I love the jacket, but wish the hood wasn't so flaky (it never stayed up). It does run small-I needed to order a size bigger than what I did.

This is one of the less puffy down jackets I tried on. I am always cold as well and this has kept me warmer this extremely cold winter in MN!

It provides a respectable amount of warmth for what it is (a rain jacket, not a coat). Throw on a couple layers under this jacket and you're good to go. I've worn this in non-rain, less than 40 degree (F) conditions and it's kept me warm with some layering.

I consider this a three-season jacket. It's lightweight enough to wear in the spring and fall, and warm enough to wear in pretty cold weather. I live in southern Maine, if that gives you an idea. For really cold weather (below 25 F) I will usually wear something a little heavier and longer with a hood to cover my head and legs too, but this is pretty great for all but the coldest weather, I think.
