Altura Night Vision jacket

How warm is it?
Reason I ask is, my dear old mum is getting into her cycling but she's not the fastest and stops quite a bit. As a result she's in need of a nice warm jacket for when she's standing still. I noticed that Wiggle have the Night Vision as a clearance item (for which they obviously deserve blame) and wondered if it would fit the bill?

My only gripe is the quality of the zips. I managed to break the chest pocket zip on my 3rd trip out.

2014 Lapierre Zesty TR 329 (the full-sus 29er)
For this reason I went down the softshell fleece route for my partner because it does regulate body temperature better and although its only shower proof, she doesn't ride in the rain anyway.
Nice jackets but not really any better than any other (cheaper) cagoule for thermal insulation.

Thanks everyone, a pretty convincing endorsement. Maybe I'll get her a nice woolly jersey as well in case it doesn't work.
