I've worn it about 10 times. The lining feels like cotton and is warm. I only wore it as casual wear. I think it's good for outdoor activities like skiing, as well as everyday wear. There is a blueish stain on the 7th image. There are no tears or frays. I will consider price reductions within a reasonable range. How about it for this time of year?
