warmer than you think

By Backcountry.com Alumni April 1, 2008

I wear medium in most every outdoor brand, very solid medium. I got this in a medium and was satisfied on the fit being a true medium. It is a athletic medium fit...so know that when picking your size. this is very warm, or cool...depending on what you use it for. When I first got it I thought it was a bit thin. but I wore it and was surprised at how warm it kept me. I have used it to layer under shells and down coats and it helps keep me warm, but helps my skin breath so I do not get all sweaty underneath the layers. Like I said it breaths really well and again very warm for how lightweight it is. I have this in Jade color and it is not as blue as it shows it is a very green color. a pretty green but it is green still. The pockets are nice and I like that they zip up so you don't loose things out of it. very good quality, very satisfied with my purchase. looking forward to some great spring cool weather hiking in it and not needing to take and put on layers as I get warm and cold.
