Okay the pro: It feels light, seems like it would protect (haven't tested this yet, thank God)The adjustment device in back works perfect and snugs up nicely.The con:The chin straps suck, like really really makes me want to return it....almost. One side lines up with your ears, the other is off. I have to have it loose all the way just to fit. That means I have this chunk of plastic and nylon on my right side chin (the buckle and the sewed end of the adjustment strap). I don't have a big head either.Notice:I may just have to keep playing with it for a lot longer. I have tried to adjust it for the better part of an hour but still couldn't get it to fit perfectly.

Oh and the white isn't white, its cream don't be fooled.

Great apline rope for mmulti-pitch and running belay. it even comes with a nice shopping bag (I think they meant it to be a rope bag but got drunk when designing it). Nice and light but not weak, seems durable.

This was my first protection purchase (having little clue where to start) and I am glad I did. It allowed me to learn the basics first and foremost. Even after progressing into other types of protection I still revert back to these on almost every climb. Make these your first protection purchase.

Like the other person I took a chance picking these up, yes they were on sale so it made it easier. I can say comparing them to the REI brand, and Smartwool they stack up just fine. No complaints and nothing that I can see that would cause someone else to complain. Again I didn't use them with Bridgedales.

Great for a fall or early winter hike. I usually bring these with as my "start up" socks on multi-day winter socks. Then switch to the warmer ones when I get to colder temps.

Great tent. The description hits the nail on the head. We even fit 3 people in this tent for one of our outings. Only complaint is in order to hold up the vestibules securely you have to attach them with three points each. Kind of a pain if you don't have a perfect pitch site. Also on the main vestibule it would have been nice to include a small square zipper vent. When cooking steam from boiling water builds up, to circumvent this you have to have one of the doors partially open. The problem is that they don’t really want to stay wide open and are not placed specifically for venting steam from cooking. So they either flop back inside and get in the way, or they don't let all the steam out and you still get moisture inside. We just ended up opening one of them up half way and sacrificed a little lost warmth. Other than that this tent is awesome.

As you can see from the pictures I use this jacket on winter climbs. It proved to be both water and wind resistant like stated. It fit me perfectly with my layers (6 ft, 155lbs and I went with a Medium). The jacket provided great mobility, breathability and wind resistance. The descriptions in the other posts are spot on the only two things I would like to add are as follows:
Careful when walking: I was trekking up the couloirs route towards Longs and just happened to brush against a pine tree (I think it was a pine, might have been a spruce) anyways one of the littlest, dinky little branches poked my left arm and tore right into the jacket. I understand this might not be the “jackets” fault, however I was a little disappointed in how easily this happened. I barely even felt the twig and wouldn’t have noticed the rip if the twig didn’t break off and stick into the hole. Just so were clear, this was a little twig, something you could break with two fingers no problem. So if you are going to be hard on your jacket you might want to look at something with a little higher Nylon rating like a 70D outer. I haven’t returned the jacket yet because I love it and am not sure if the tear would be covered under warranty or not. It is no bigger than the size of the top of a pencil eraser so we shall see if they will replace it or fix it.

The second issue I personally had was the main zipper. I don’t know if it is because I am Polish or not but I had the hardest time getting the zipper started and undone. I would always have to remove my liners and fidget with it to get the two sides to line up right and be able to pull the zipper up. Also when undoing the zipper it always got caught at the end and was a difficult to detach the two sides of the zipper. This could be user error or it could just be the style of the zipper to ensure no wind or water gets through. So take this complaint lightly!
Other than those two things the jacket is awesome. I have used it twice to golf in (mist to full out pouring) and it turned out to be a great golf jacket! New line for MH, MH Golf. If you have any more question feel free to ask and I will try to answer them the best that I can!

Picked this one up early November for my climb later that week @ Longs Peak, CO. Was planning on putting this jacket as my outer layer while in the tree line assuming there was no snow. Then throwing my shell over it once we got above the tree line.

Lets start with the two bad things: First, even if you get the right size on this jacket (a medium for me 6ft 155lbs) it still is a pain to put on. If you are wearing any long sleeve shirt other then say Lycra (So anything with cotton or poly in it), the arms on the jacket always catch your under layer and pull it up. Now I understand they want to have a nice fuzzy layer on the inside, but it is not necessary on the arms. Either that or line it with some poly so that you can slide your arms in somewhat easy. Second, The North Face name, now I understand some of their products have gone to crap and you're paying for the name. Some are outstanding yet still you're paying for the name. With this one the product is great, but the price is high. Pick it up on sale if you can wait.

Pros:

Cat and Dog hair can't touch this jacket. Not related to any technical stuff on the jacket but having that soft-shell fabric with fleece inside and not getting hair clumps is great. Keeps the wind rain and snow away. Decent to about 20 degrees with winds 20 mph and below. Anything over that and you start to feel it, even with a decent base layer. Once you start getting into the more harsh conditions it would be beneficial to have a good layer system either utilizing this jacket or having it off and packed away.

Overall I am pleased with this jacket. I got it on sale so the price didn't hurt as much. I can wear it around town or in the snow and back country. Great buy.
