What does the outer shell material feel like? Is it anything like the PowerShield Softshell material that is so wonderful? How stiff is the material?

Although not as weather resistant as Powershield, the mechanical stretch material on the Siphon Primaloft is softer, more supple and insulated with Primaloft, with no fleece (unlike the Powershield Material, which is usually backed by fleece). The material is very soft. Think down jacket, but much thinner. It is, however, very very warm.
