Ya super quick question. Are saga jackets warm? Basically can i get a run down of wat the materials/layers are. is it just a shell, or does it have insulator too? thanks in advance guys....

It's only a shell.

The solution to keeping warm is layering.

If you like it, buy it, then buy a good thermal.

you guys think an under armor and a hoodie is enough for the east? right now i have a north face jacket with insulator, so i just wear the under armor. idk wat do you think?

I just wear a t-shirt until about -10 to -15C. I don't get cold too easily though.

Yeah you should be fine with a hoodie on.

I simply wear a polly-pro longsleeve with a teeshirt over it.

I actually like that it's just a shell. You can always layer up, but with insulated stuff, you can't layer down... so Saga you can wear all season long, even in the spring!
