The thickness and warmth of this jacket surprised me in a positive way, and at the same time it is very light. Of course, in case of severe frost, you should choose some protection for the head and neck, e.g. a Helikon fleece with a hood underneath, plus a light merino wool neck warmer and a good hat, but then even -30 is not a problem...
