I've shredded plenty in N Mich and I have to say that NO jacket is warm enough for me to stay toasty there with only a long sleeve. That said, you may be a total Eskimo-badass that doesn't get cold. If that's the case this jacket has a small amount of insulation (40 grams). For me, I would wear a jacket with either more insulation (like 100+ grams), or a down jacket, if I was rocking a single layer underneath. Burton Deerfield jacket is so warm and looks killer. check these links... http://www.dogfunk.com/mens-insulated-snowboard-jackets http://www.dogfunk.com/mens-puffy-jackets Personally, if I was shreddin this jacket at Blackjack or Indianhead all winter, I would get a really warm insulating layer to wear underneath. But really I would just get a down jacket and call it good.
