I really like this jacket, but there is one thing... I do not know why but MH did not put WINDSTOPPER fabric under the arms, instead they put stretchy material, and as far as I can tell, it does not stretch at all. Also, the material on the outside likes to attract everything, like cat hair and cotton, but this is no problem because you can get rid of it with a lint roller. All in all, this is an excellent bit of kit. Oh, unlike the WINDSTOPPER Tech jacket, you do not feel the seams on this one where the fabric is joined up.

I tried the Mountain Hardwear Link after finding the Mountain Hardwear Windstopper Tech to be cut too roomy. The Link fits really well and is cut much more like a soft shell, but still has enough room in the chest and sleeves for an extra layer. The power stretch panels are nice when you're moving a lot, but cause the jacket to be a bit drafty when you're standing still (or when the wind blows from the side). Probably need an additional layer for winter weather.

If you're looking for a lightweight, windstopper fleece that provides a lot of warmth for the weight and good weather protection, this is a great jacket.

I was elated the day I received the Mountain Hard Wear Link Jacket. I was very pleased with how it fit under my Exposure II outer jacket. Living in Mankato, Minnesota I demand gear that is wind resistant, water repelling, breathable and comfortable. With the combination of the Link Fleece and Exposure I have been very comfortable cross country skiing and snow shoeing this winter. The Link Fleece is a good looking and comfortable jacket used alone as well.

Awesome! this is the jacket version of the vest I bought last year. it too is superlight, windstopper warm and great body shape fit! Highly recommended!

Right away I was hesitant to pay over 100 bucks for a fleece jacket, but after wearing it for a week with a high of 10 F I was very impressed. This thing feels like nothing it is very light and comfy, but it is warm. I use it as a mid-layer when skiing as well and it is great.
