Good as a winter running jacketIt's also snagged pretty badly when I've scrambled up east coast granite, to the point where its structure has been compromised.
I've most successfully used it as a shell when running long distance during Syracuse winter to keep wind and light precipitation off me and to keep in the warmth. I still own it for this reason.
