Okay I took this jacket to Perisher in Australia this past season and it was absolutely perfect. The padding is just right — warm enough for the cold morning runs but not so bulky that I was sweating by midday. Layered it over my base layer and under my shell and the fit was chef's kiss. Also looks so good on the slopes, got a few compliments! Unisex sizing works great, just size down if you're between sizes.
