Backcountry.com Rime Pullover Jacket - Men's

Order a size larger. IF your in between sizes go big.

This is a must have top for spring biking. Going to work, it has been about -5C while coming home the temps are usually 12-18C. I generally cruise at about 25kph. Zipped up in the mornings with just a single Icebreaker 140 T underneath there are almost no problems with the cold or wind. Coming home, I usually have it unzipped by about half way home and it works out perfectly. The only slight problem I have is that for some reason, my wrists get cold in the wind. Not sure if the windproof material is absent there, but that's the only place where I can feel any wind. Love the carrot color: it's a great orange - not too bright, not too subtle.

It's a little short, when I reach up it moves up and shows off my stomach. Oh well. Other than that one problem the jacket is great. It can be worn alone or often I wear it with my Agnello top. Perfect combo.

Got this one in green apple in the bc outlet for 100 as well as a day earlier than anticipated. The color is great, the jacket is even better. I haven't worn it in any extreme conditions, but it stops wind, rain will roll right off of it and keep me warm in 30F or above weather. I got the medium (140 lbs athletic, 5'9") and the sleeves are nice and long, the torso is a little short, but I noticed the back is a little longer than the front which is good crack coverage for sitting or bending over. The medium is the perfect size to layer a fleece underneath for when it gets real cold. The cuff material is great because it won't seem to get as dirty as other softshells' cuffs that are the same as the jacket. One last thing-- the goat logos are awesome! Nice and reflective as well as a conversation starter.

like others said it runs a little small but a large fits me perfect and I am 6foot 170. The large weighed in at 10oz for those counting or backpacking. I would say that mine keeps me warmer then a mid fleece but it is almost windproof and has some water resistant capabilities. very durable.

I work for the forest service in the Pacific Northwest. This is my go-to jacket for nearly every day of work. I wore this jacket to work in the woods every day for 4 months and it doesn't show any signs of wear. The form fitting is ideal for unrestricted range of motion. I have found that it performs awesome in light rain and windy conditions. It is also light and stuffable so it takes up minimal room in my pack when I do decide to take it off, which is very rare in the spring and fall. I don't go into the woods without it.

I have this awesome pullover in carbon. I think the color is slightly lighter in color than the images on the website (as everyone has pointed out). The arms are long (even though I am long-armed), and the size S is tough for me to pull on (I am ultra-skinny at 5'10, 140lbs). Once it's on, it fits wonderfully and kept me warm in moderate temperature conditions (45F with 20mph wind) with just two layers on. Everyone else in street clothing shivered and froze. I stood there and enjoyed the wind.

Great jacket. I used during the winter for running. It kept me warm with some baselayers underneath, and well protected from wind and elements. Being 6 feet and 180 Large fits me pretty well.

The small size fits my build perfectly, BUT I am also 140lbs and 5'10. Get the next size up! Haven't used it outdoors yet, but this thing is super light and the warmth it provides (while I'm sitting here) is amazing.

When you read "pullover jacket" you may think that this would make an excellent outer-layer over a thick baselayer or midlayer. If this is what you are planning on doing I would size up. The description does not lie when it uses phrases like "streamlined" and "fitted." Really, this piece works best over a thin baselayer, especially when you are putting off heat. It's thin, breathable, and very water-resistant, and also does pretty well in the wind. But if it really gets cold out, it's soft and comfortable enough to be a good layering piece. It is also lightweight and packs very small. Very nice.

I have used this jacket a month in Kabul, Afghanistan now. It is perfect for spring weather conditions. I have used it for both walking and running in both rain and sun - it just does it's job. It is the first softshell I have owned that are completely waterprof. Used it in completely downpour and didn't get wet. Highly recommendable!

I bought this pullover for my winter outside runs, and it is awesome!(I live @ 6500') With the right base layer, I have gone out in 0 degree temps and felt great. The arms seem to be a little long, but I think it helps keep heat in when it's really cold. If you want a windproof, waterproof, and breathable outer layer....look no further!

I have had the Rime Pullover for almost 4 months. Its perfect for the Front Range winter and spring when layered with a SmartWool top. I spent 4+ hours in snow and rain last Sunday while the outside was soaked, my core was warm and dry.

I agree with the other reviews, the torso is short and the arms are long. Order a size up - the extra sleeve length can double as mittens.

Love this pullover - not really a jacket (you can wear it indoors if you are chilly too). I liked it so much that I bought 2 more of 'em. As others have said, sizes run a little tight so consider that when ordering.

This is a nice looking shirt (I'd hesitate to call it a jacket), but it's not nearly as warm as any of the other pullover base layers I own (Hind, Brooks, Pearl Izumi). It runs a little snug and short in front. I'm 6'/190, and an XL is good for me, where these days I more often wear a large.

This is an excellent running jacket in temperatures between 30 to 45. I only need a thin baselayer to keep me warm. Most other jackets fits me a bit loose but this one is just right. I don't like the same gray color being used for the front chest pocket because it does not match any of the jacket colors except carbon. I would have bought another one if they offered better color selections.

I love this peice for almost everything. I like to take it backpackng because it is as light as my lightweight fleece peices but it is wind resistat and water resistant. for the large it is only 10oz.
I am 6foot and 170 and the large fits me perfect. not as bulky as a fleece either.

I'm surprised how warm this jacket is. It's great! It's extremely thin and light and great at blocking wind. According to Polartec, the Polartec Power Shield material blocks 98% of wind! Very water resistant as well. When running it under the sink practically all of the water beads off.

Firstly I'm 5'7, 130lbs and ordered a small. The torso fit perfect, the shoulders are a tad wide, but the arms are way to long. The sleeves actually ended to my finger tips. I have normally lengthed arms, so I'm not sure who this jacket is designed for. Other than the the arms, the jacket material and color are excellent. I am disappointed to have to return it.

Just recieved my pull over from steap and cheap. Love the material, nice light weight, form fitting. I oredered the summit sky because, but after recieving it I will have return it because it is more of a teal color. I am 6'1" 180, rather long arms, the large was somewhat difficult to get on but felt great once on. Surprisingly the arms were long enough, which is rare for a large in my case. I think I will return it for the same size different color.

I just love this pullover.

Its a good layering piece, so if you're wearing it you don't need to use as heavy of a jacket. It seems to breathe okay, its easy to launder and the chest pocket is convenient for keys, phones and everything else.

It keeps you pretty warm, but not overly. The zipper is sturdy isn't isn't prone to snagging anything else. The logo just makes you look cool, because you've got the goat near your heart (and it's a great conversation starter) and the smaller logo on the left sleeve is unnoticeable unless you're looking for it. They're also useful if you're in the dark because the logos reflect light well, but be cautious if you're using a camera with flash you're bound to get a bright picture of the logo if you're photographed wearing this.

Overall a great piece of gear, one suggestion would be putting in a elastic drawstring at the bottom to better fit us svelte people with very long arms.

This is a great pullover, very wind resistant and warm for its weight. Nice casual pullover for spring/fall I've gotten lots of compliments. Also great technical piece, I use it mostly for winter hiking but it goes in my pack for just about any outing in all 4 seasons. If your going to be active wear a thin long sleeve base layer underneath b/c it doesn't wick very well nts. I am 220 6ft, wear an XL, and there is enough room for a thick icebreaker underneath. I've also had it for about a year and it is still holding up great.

For biking, hiking, touring, climbing and any high exertion activity, this jacket provides the protection and breathability that I need.
