A few questions
How does the Denali Wind Pro body fabric compare to Dualie Fleece? The Wind Pro has Polartec fabric while the other has a 'grid fleece' but they both have a a "grid-like' stitch pattern. I went to my local sporting goods store and the Dualie was the closest match according to pictures so I just wanted to know if its the same feel.
How absorbent is the Denali Wind Pro fabric? I know it has the DWR technology but will it soak through after light steady rain?
How exactly does the fabric FEEL like? is it stiff or soft?
Is the sizing exactly how the North Face sizing chart suggests? I am 5'5" 150lbs average build, I recently purchased the Chromium Thermal jacket and it was an awkward fit for me: I got a medium and the chest was snug but the arm length was too long for me. Large would have had really long sleeves and small would have been to tight and short (maybe?)

If you are deciding between the Windpro or the Denali fleece...Go with the Windpro version...The windpro will take on some light rain but not for too long...It will soak in...The fabric on the windpro to me is soft to the touch...Its not super stiff by any means...I am 6'0 160lbs and I wear a medium jacket...The sleeves on the windpro are a little big and baggy...I seem to like them that way...The regular Denali doesn't match up to the windpro version...You do pay more but its worth it to me in the end...
