The North Face Valkyrie Softshell Jacket - Men's

The North Face Valkyrie Softshell Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 4, 2009

I agree that the sleeve lining is good and bad. If it is only cool, say in 40's and 50's and can wear a short sleeved shirt, then the sleeves feel nice. But if you have on anything other than lyrca or similar, you have to grab your shirt cuffs to keep them down as you put your jacket on. Minor problem overall. Nice jacket for activity in cool weather, such as snow-shoeing or hiking. It is quiet when in use. I like the longer waist length compared to the non-hooded versions out there. Sheds moisture well. Haven't used it in a rainstorm, only light precipitation so far (it doesn't rain that much in southern Oregon, really!!- unlike Portland). I feel it is sublime enough to use around town so you don't standout as a poser wanna-be. I got it on sale also. Full price would be too much to pay for this item.
Beware the grey version. The photo does not show that the inner storm flap and zipper housing is red in color. It shows up grey in the photo. I had originally ordered that color and found it to be a bit obnoxiously bright. I have informed backcountry of discrepancy well over a month ago. They said they would change the picture, but it doesn't appear they have so far. I had to re-order the product in black and pay for return postage. Less than optimal. Overall, I am happy with this purchase for all-around usage. Product 5 stars, Color issue and return postage required 3 stars, Overall 4 stars.
