Get some spooning in!

By Backcountry.com Employee November 28, 2008

No really folks.. I bought this jacket in the Inca Blue.. Wow! I went for a run in 30 degree weather. Perfect for running in fall and with base layer (like the new LIFA dry tech. from Helly Hansen and nothing else.) And this is hot Casual! I have never had so many compliments. Here's the Gnarledge on it. I'm 6'0 185bls. Perfect arm length for you usual long armed lerp, perfect chest fit I where a 44/42 inch blazer. Super Abrasion resistance. The lining has small amount of fleece in it to make it soft to the touch, just enough to wear it really holds your heat in which is AWESOMEAGE! And they added new padding in the Collar that I think is better then a heath bar on a ice cream sunday! Perfect casual piece too! Super stretchy. Little thicker than the Gamma MX. great for climbing, backpacking, hiking, and around town. even looks great with a pair of slacks. Do your self a favor. make the girl rethink why she didn't date you before. When they see you in this. You might even get a little spoonage! I did!
