I got one this past Christmas. It’s surprisingly warm for how light it is but the fabric isn’t terribly durable. Two days after getting it I was feeding the chickens and caught some of the chicken wire on the door to the coop and it ripped. I patched it no problem. Otherwise I think it makes a great mid layer and am happy I added it to my hunting kit.

It’s not silent. It does have a krinkle and swoosh when you move. It has gotten a tad more quite as I have worn it more and more but there is no doubt about the noise it makes. As a bow hunter it would not be my first choice to wear as an outer layer on a stalk, but as a mid layer under a quiet jacket i would wear it. Also one thing I forgot to add in my original post, it’s not bulky at all so wearing it as a mid layer is not a problem.
