bwinters For arguments sake, lets say the jacket had a hood. Would you then find the jacket more appealing than the hoody?

Also, I think from your posts I can assume you have the guide jacket ( as do I). I also assume you find the guide jacket to be way to tight when worn over a puffy ( as I have found out when trying to wearing my uncompahgre puffy under my guide). Can you comment on how your patagonia r1 hoody fits under your guide jacket?

Thanks
