Versatile jacket!

Ranked #2178 - Men's Technical Shells
February 11, 2009
This thing can really get the job done in any conditions. If you have a good fleece zipped into it, it'll keep you warm. If it gets hot, you can take the fleece out and open up the vents to cool off. If the rain starts feeling, you can through on the hood and trust the gore tex to keep you bone dry. Tough material, and packs down to a pretty good size. I found it to fit true to size (I'm 6' and 160 lbs and a small fits me great even with some layering underneath.) Highly recommended!
