Smoke - Nice clothes. My youngest son is a Patagonia fan as well. This jacket/pullover will get him through what remains of the dry winter season in western MA. I was in Boston last week and it was in the 30s and 40's and not too bad temperature wise, but snow and sleet are a different matter entirely. He's going to need another jacket for the wet winter season. Just saying another winter jacket for the snow would make a nice Xmas present along with some wicking and warm athletic undergarments to go under his uniform..
