Marmot Super Hero Softshell Jacket - Men's
One of the best I've owned
By Daniel Torres
Ranked #565 - Men's Softshell Jackets
March 23, 2009
I wanted a softshell to be a softshell. Not an insulating layer. This is a softshell. It does have insulating properties (light fleece layer) in places where snow could accumulate (darker red on shoulders/arms/back) as well as tougher material in these place. It is plenty warm for warm weather alpine activities. Most of the time we are pulling our softshells off while pushing, and pulling down on while standing still, this is the perfect in-between layer.
I'm 6'2" 172lbs with longish arms. Wear a 15 1/2, 35/36 shirt with 42 chest. I bought a large and it fits great.
