How does this compare to the Apex Bionic? I like the Apex Bionic fabric and fitment. How is this any different?

Hey Dan, This jacket differs from the Bionic in a few ways. Firstly it uses a Gore Windstopper laminate which makes the jacket 100% windproof. It is also more breathable than the Bionic. Secondly this jacket has a high loft (i.e. tall) fleece lining which makes it much warmer than your standard Apex Bionic. You also lose the Napoleon pocket (place over the upper left chest) from the Bionic. The two jackets are similar in that the face fabric is the same. They are also both water resistant and will stand up well to a moderate rain. Fit wise the jackets will fit the same.
