Ranked #543 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
December 23, 2008
I like a lot about this jacket: lightweight; insulated; stow (or no) hood; not too long; outer layer is thin-ish and flexible. But, there are technical details that sink it for me: the euro zipper; zipper not dual-acting; cuffs hard to really cinch down due to the elastic; sleeves a bit too short (these last two issues mean that my glove liners work themselves out from the sleeves during activity: not acceptable); placement of hand pockets too low if you are wearing a big hip belt. Soooo... the question is: what other jackets should I look at that have the same good (from my perspective) qualities of the Highpoint? It doesn't seem to be a huge category, and I'm getting lost in all the shells. Thanks.
