If you're looking at this, then I'll be you are already the target audience and you understand why this is a compelling piece- ability to take on and off without moving is amazing, all while preserving breathability in the back (or at least backpack compatibility). I am a big fan of skinning/running in light windshirts (e.g., patagonia houdini) as they're fairly breathable and still serve the windbreaker function, all while being super light.
