The North Face Momentum Jacket - Men's
August 16, 2008
I love the momentum jacket so much I bought another one. It is an excellent 100 weight fleece that stretches to keep you covered in the most strenuous of activities. The look is very attractive with sharp lines and an athletic fit. I have gotten many compliments on the style. The 'monkey thumbs' are really cool and help keep your hands super warm and dry. Also, this jacket is the perfect layering piece for the apex bionic jacket, which is also an awesome jacket. Together, they are a formidable defense against the cold/wind/water. A+

busted stitching
The North Face Filled Red Box T-Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Men's
August 16, 2008
I liked the shirt, but it has already had the stitching come loose on the waist seem. It is not that big of a deal, but if you don't fix it, it may continue all the way around the shirt. C+

Answer to: "I am Interested to pick up a winter jacket for Boston winter..."
The North Face Redpoint Hybrid Insulated Jacket - Men's
August 12, 2008
It depends on the activity that you will be doing while wearing the jacket. High activity means that you can get away with less insulation. New England winters are on the cold side, yes? I would recommend something from the 'insulated' line. I own a redpoint jacket and I love it. It is deceptively warm and extremely light weight. The redpoint is really more of a layering option in the extreme cold, though. If you want a stand-alone winter coat from TNF for the cold of a Boston winter, I would recommend the knuptse down jacket. As I stated earlier, it depends on the activity you are doing while wearing the jacket. The knuptse is by no means an exterior shell, and down it will become quite useless when wet. As always, a good stock of interchangeable layering pieces in a zip-in system makes for the best option in a variety of conditions.
Does the khumbu have internal goggle pockets like the pumori?...
The North Face Khumbu Fleece Jacket - Men's
August 11, 2008
Does the khumbu have internal goggle pockets like the pumori? The specs for both jackets lists only 2 hand pockets, but my pumori has the internal ones as well. It is a nice feature and if the khumbu doesn't have it, I would probably be better off with another pumori.

nice goggle pockets
The North Face Pumori Fleece Jacket - Men's
August 11, 2008
Great jacket that works well in a variety of functions. I especially like the internal goggle pockets. They are great for quick storage of eye-wear or whatever on the mountain. Also, TNF doesn't really have a good mp3 pocket with a headphone port like some other brands, so the goggle pockets work for that as well. I don't know why they don't list it on the the specs. So far, the pumori is the only jacket I've seen with them, but I wish they would put them on others like the denali as well.

Maybe the perfect jacket
The North Face Apex Bionic Jacket - Men's
May 6, 2008
Awesome jacket! Apex is top of the line softshell material - water and windproof. This jacket is incredibly warm for its weight, but in colder weather, you will need to mind your layering. I recommend the momentum jacket. It is another stretch-fleece by tnf and it has thumb-loops. I have never been disappointed by any of my north face gear, and this is one of my favorites. I also have the vest and it rocks too.
