Mountain Hardwear Tanglewood Softshell Jacket - Men's

Fits snug, which is what I was looking for.Still has ample room in chest and I like the longer arms with thumb hooks.I'm looking forward to using it on those uphill grinds backcountry skiing. I'm 6'0 190lbs. and got the large

I got this jacket in the Galaxy blue color. It's a really nice color and pretty much looks exactly like the picture. I'm a little on the short side and the small fits me okay. (5'6'' and 135 pounds). The front is cut a little short and the bottom kind of squeezes in without even tightening the waist draw cords, but overall I am very happy with this jacket.

I've used this for cold weather cycling and backcountry skiing (both nordic and alpine). It's done great in everything. I'm especially pleased with the long sleeves-they overlap well with warm gloves. My only complaint is that the main zipper is very small, and is difficult to operate in gloves.

great jacket, light weight, warm, very mobile, great fit, very warm, the only down side is, no hood does great as a mid layer in real bad conditions.

This jacket is all that and more. When I first placed my order I got a M according to the fit chart. I had to return it and got a L instead. I primarily use this jacket for my winter bike riding. And let me tell you it has kept me warm and comfortable. I did find that at temps at around 5 degrees the jacket does not breathe very well, it has not bothered or affected me or my riding. And you should be ok as long as you have a proper layer under it.

Purchased for cycling, and it does a great job. 5'11", 170lbs, 42" chest, 30" waist and the medium with layers under it fits perfect. Very light, wind resistant, and I haven't been run over yet so I'm assuming the reflective patches may have helped. :) Two-way zipper helps when needing to adjust layers or what have you. It breathes well too with a wicking layer under it. Haven't needed the thumb loops because the arms are tapered and stay in place as is. It fits like a custom tailored garment. Very happy with it!

The Tanglewood Softshell Jacket is well constructed, (especially with its waist draw cords that keep heat in when you want it), beautifully styled, and more importantly, for the cyclist, at least, it is amazingly wind resistant. The material is 3x or 4x's more effective than what you would have expected or hoped. On my first ride down Deer Hill, on a very cold and windy day, I kept wondering what this feeling on my chest was all about. Eventually, I realized it was the wind. Hard to Imagine! Warning! You must wear an insulator underneath on cooler days, like Hyperdry, Powerstretch, Transition, or one, two, or three, if it is very cold. Oh!. The morning dew is forming like little rain drops on my sleeves or is that the rain? It does it all.
