Hey NS.
Im looking for a new jacket this winter. I want an insulated jacket that is more than just a shell. I am currently looking for something similar to the Oakley Entire jacket. I have a pair of 10/11 saga moss pants, so im not tryn to rock crazy colors. I know it comes down to style(which is my decision) but i was was wondering what durable decently warm, (dont want a down jacket) with good waterproof/breath-ability you guys would recommended. Not looking for something with a 72 in zipper... I like to keep a loose fitting but nothing ridiculously baggy outerwear look.
Thanks guys.

Most of ns will just reccomend you a shell, but i rock an insulated sessions istodis from a few years back and i love it. great durability, the waterproof/bb is like 15/15 and still holds up perfectly even under 3 seasons of pnw conditions. The jacket has lots of really nice features like wrist gaitors, oversize hood for helmet compatibility, pow skirt, lots of pockets, whistle zipper, pit vents, recco incorporated, fully taped seams, and the fit is pretty baggy and stylish. definately a company/jacket i would reccomend.

yeah insulated ftw.
last year i wore a shell and to stay warm you have to wear a hoodie under it and it just feels weird. so this year i got a great deal on the purple orage baldwin jacket from 09 which is insulated
