Norrøna Narvik Soft Shell Jacket - Men's

Lightweight, stretchy, and water-resistant, the Norrøna Men's Narvik Softshell Jacket feels like a part of your body you lost at birth. OK, that sounds kind of morbid, but you get the idea. The Narvik Jacket's 2-layer Soft Shell fabric flexes with your movements for long-wearing freeride comfort in mild spring weather. When you're pushing your limits in the backcountry, the welded softshell fabric breathes like crazy to keep you feeling fresher than the bread at Farmer's Market, and dual side vents open up to blow heat out the door.

Bottom Line: Norrøna's Narvik Softshell—the jacket freeriders should be born with.

Not Windstopper, Not Good at All

By: brutodd2154536
May 3, 2008

This is not Gore Windstopper. It is Norrona's proprietary "windstopper." Gore is pretty tough and always has a "Gore Windstopper" BIG Red Stop Sign tag on the jacket, or has "Windstopper" embroidered on the jacket somewhere, but this one does not. That should've been my first clue. Unfortunately, it was not. The jacket leaks air, plain and simple. There are no seam sealing, taping, or anything besides a very very thin piece of mesh around the pit zips to keep air out. Needless to say, it doesn't. Air leaks in and through the zipper as well. I wore it on a high 20-degree day at Copper in mid April with a 10-15mph breeze and I was frigid and could feel wind coming in around my pits and on my chest. . My cheap $60 Billabong jacket kept me warm all winter with just a nylon shell so I knew something wasn't right. Only plus's are that the Blue Color is absolutely amazing, it has a really "clean" design, and...the powder skirt sorta works. And BC's customer service and return service rules! Bottom line, the jacket is flat out terrible in functionality, but good on looks. But who cares when you're on a ridge and its 30mph winds if you look good?
