The lack of internal pockets is the only real feature missing, which means it doesn't pack in on itself. In addition the pockets are insulated, which means that when the zips are open, there is a heat path through them from inside.

The watchdog said: “The ASA considered that consumers would interpret the claim made in the ad to mean that in test conditions the jacket had been able to maintain a prescribed degree of warmth in temperatures down to -30C, but that a number of factors would affect their experience of wearing the product in real world conditions.

Suggested elsewhere this might be to allow a helmet underneath, but seems odd to then have no real adjustment to help it fit without one on. I have worn it in dry weather over a simple cotton T-shirt at freezing with no concerns and in snow storms with a Gore-Tex outer shell down to -8C and can confirm that it was a thoroughly pleasant experience. They said the test was carried out against a recognised international standard – EN ISO 15731:2004 – and that the results estimated that based on the thermal resistance rating of the jacket and its ‘clo’ rating (a measurement of clothing insulation), a user would be able to withstand temperatures down to -31C while carrying out medium pace activity such as running or skiing, -12C during low pace activity such as walking and 0C if the user was stationary.In many alternatives, such as fleeces or synthetic padded jackets, you have a tendency to think that your jacket is doing a good job of keeping out the cold.
