I have this Columbia Omniheat jacket: http://www.columbia.com/mens-heat-mode-ii-softshell-jacket---tall-1555943.html?cgid=technology-omniHeatReflective&dwvar_1555943_variationColor=010 http://www.columbia.com/mens-heat-mode-ii-softshell-jacket--... I live in the Chicago suburbs. The jacket is only good to about 32°F, and not good at all with cold winds. I was hoping the reflective coating would help, but I don't notice it helping at all. Definitely no more than a 5% improvement. My Carhartt jacket (1000 Denier Cordura Plus Nylon) is much better for wintertime. It seems like stopping the outside wind from getting in does a lot more to help you stay warm than does reflecting your body heat. But maybe put the lining inside the Carhartt jacket to get the best of both worlds?
