I take it all back

By Ranked #39 - Men's Softshell Jackets January 7, 2009

This is my second review of this jacket. I originally said that I wouldn't pay full price for it - now I disagree. If someone stole the one I have, I would probably pay double to get it back. This is hands down the best lightweight pullover I've ever seen. The PowerShield softshell material is head and shoulders above any other jacket material. Super functional - blocks even moderately heavy rain, nearly all wind, and oh so comfortable. The lining is perfect. The only thing I would warn of - I ordered a Large, then returned for XL (6',180, broad shoulders - also, the little extra length in the torso was nice...if you like a close fit, no need to order up). It would be nice if the logo was embroidered, but that's just me being picky.
