Pretty much.
Its an absolute weather Shield. But it dosent insulate.
Thats were the thin merino stuff comes in for me.
Merino vest + jersey = not too warm even climbing in decent weather.
Merino arm warmers and a race cape in you jersey Pocket = not too Cold even when hit by a snow storm on a peak.
So if you're worried about the Cold just add wool.
The pro team jacket is a lovely bit of kit. But I sold mine to fund the race cape. I simply got frustrated not being able to take it off, and With a decent base. The race cape did the same job.
