Stupid hood!

Ranked #1851 - Men's Technical Shells
February 23, 2009
Loved the jacket as a whole, but the huge non-removable hood killed it for me. It was always in the way and flapping around. They need to make it removable or at least put some velcro on it so you can keep it out of the way. I will be sticking with my Mt. Light Parka for now.
