Can I wear this as an outer jacket for a week-long ski trip if I layer with fleece and base layers underneath?

I found it to be a tight fit, so I wouldn't be able to put extra clothes underneath. It was a good wind breaker, so it would depend on your jacket.

No - it's too light. Especially if your coming to Colorado, it's COLD here and our snow is big. Even with synthetic base and fleece, just not warm or waterproof enough

No you would definitely have to wear some long johns underneath to stay warm. They are comfortable but under 30 degrees you will be cold if outside for anytime.

Yes, if that's how you want to pack it. Or fold, roll and pack in an backpack/stuff sack. I am very happy with this jacket and Marmot makes good stuff. You may want to consider the Marmot Aegis as well. Enjoy!

It's probably perfect for commuting since it's very warm but not bulky like most Down coats. I wear it outdoors until its below zero then you need something warm underneath it.

Ah, I honestly don't know! I live in Las Vegas so I unfortunately don't get to wear enough. I bought it for my trip to Ireland which I took in march and it withstood the weather fantastically! At first I would wear xtra layers underneath but quickly found out it wasn't necessary! It would get hot quick! But it's a fantastic fantastic jacket that I wish I could wear more often! Hope this helps!

Definitely. The sides under the fly are completely mesh, it would be extremely cold with the slightest winter breeze.

Not sure I understand the question.As I understand it,it is worn under parka or shell jacket not zipped to it.I wear mine under a EMS shell jacket and I've not been cold even in the crazy cold weather we're having in Ma.Hope that helped.

I think you will likely be too warm once you warm up. If it's practical to do so, you could wear the jacket for your warm up and then take it off. With the full length zipper, it isn't hard to take off.

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

I am 6'3" and have a 46" chest and a 36" waist, I bought the XL. It fits well. I can wear a polarfleece hoodie underneath, but it is snug. There are velcro straps on the side, but only to make it 1-2" smaller. XXL would have been better for me to add layers underneath, weather in Canada in the Rockies is so much cooler than south of the border . The arms might be snug, but if you're removing the sleeves...I think it looks cool without sleeves.

This jacket is a light shell and not designed for warmth. Layer if it's cold.

i really wouldnt suggest wearing it UNDER clothing, it can be pretty bulky. Maybe a sweatshirt or hoodie might work, but anything more snug would be uncomfortable.

I'd say the coat is perfect for those temps. It will keep you warm without being too hot. I'd use a good, breathable under layer too.

For that temp range mid-weight would be way too much for me. I would go for several light layers. Your insulation needs will vary widely during hiking, resting etc. so it will be the old story of layer up and layer down.

I don't think that this is the vest for you then. It's perfect for over a thermal, but an insulated jacket may be a bit much. Also, it will flop around too much if not fastened on the sides.

I suppose that would depend on what you have on under it. I live in East Tennessee, and the coat is actually too warm for our normal winter days. But, with our high humidity and wind, I would have to have on long underwear, a heavy shirt, tee shirt, and perhaps insulated overalls, and then the coat would be great. But to tell you for sure, I cannot. We stay between 20 and 50 most of the winter.
