Good soft shell

Ranked #1716 - Men's Softshell Jackets

Ive had a few soft shells now and nothing compares to this one, but ive also never paid so much for one either. Its a good jacket but it lowers on my scale due to price. I live in northern alberta so it gets pretty cold and the jacket hold up well. But when it droppes below -15 celsius you need a nother layer underneith and it would not hold up to the cold with out my gore-tex northface outer shell.
After all that being said, i would say its a good jacket but for the cold days you will still need to layer.
one more thing, ive found it very breathable. No problem with that at all.
