Patagonia Windproof Leeway Jacket - Men's
Watch out
By Ramesh Acharya
Ranked #2604 - Men's Softshell Jackets
November 21, 2008
Bought this jacket because of the word "windproof" and "soft shell".
Though I like the material and it also seem to ward off wind, the zipper is a big let down. The second day I was wearing it, the zipper came open and it was really hard to push it down to unzip it. Yesterday it did again. Anoterh issue, sleeves are to long and no cuff or hem cord. At least they should have put a velcro or elastic to seal. Don't understand why Patagonia skimped on these little things.
I will probably go for Arcteryx only for a little more.
