4.5 Stars... All-Around Great Middle Layer

By Krandon Belly Ranked #219 - Men's Shirts December 23, 2008

Really like this thing... at 6' and 165lbs, large fits well length-wise with room for inevitable weight gain. The 4-way stretch and fleece-y inside make it pajama-grade comfortable with a great warmth-factor. Solid flat seam construction everywhere except the base of the collar isn't flat. Pocket is kinda small but just the right size for an ID, some cash and an iPod shuffle... and it's secured into the material so it won't flop around when you're moving. Gets good loft for the weight to keep heat in... 0% water resistant and ~50% wind resistant

Price is awesome for polartec gear, especially getting it from S&C ($35). Sharkskin color is a little paler than online, but still stylish.

Overall great design, 4.5 stars for some minor stuff - i'd like the cuff's a bit tighter and some sturdier zippers, etc. May update after I finish putting it through its paces.
