Should I upgrade / sidegrade my jacket?

I bought two thermostatic jackets on closeout with out hoods for the wife and I recently. We were impressed with the warmth to weight especially at the price we paid. I suppose it depends on what temps you are expecting to use it in. I wanted something for cooler summer and early fall weather. Cant remember now what temps we had them down to but on our last trip in the ADK's early this fall the nights lows were 34F so I would guess we had them on in the upper 30's to lower 40's and we were fine. Wore them with a LS shirt or LS base layer. Added a UL rain jacket when the wind started blowing. I was very happy with the fit and function when hiking in the early morning with them. I would look around and get a leftover. You will save a good deal of money. jimmmyb PS. I was impressed enough to start looking for a little heavier synthetic hooded jacket to add to my quiver of mid layers. Any suggestions would be helpful.
