Do you ever plan on going someplace really cold?

Why do you think that is Pete?
The lack of all those stitch through lines or is the fabric in the EE APEX garment more wind resistant/ windproof?
60GSM APEX is only about 6mm thick after a few weeks use so not really a lot of insulation; it's interesting as so many reviews say it is a very warm garment.

If I had to look at another synthetic for a Tassie winter I'd be thinking of the Macpac Pulsar plus or a good S/H Patagonia DAS parka.
Not that this helps the OP much but when the mercury drops below freezing better too much insulation than not enough

Heading to Tassie in a couple of months. The plan for super cold weather is a Thermal baselayer, Macpac Nitro Pullover, EE Torrid Apex and finally a rain shell if needed.

Are you talking about walking in this ensemble? Or static?
