Ranked #4750 - Men's Softshell Jackets
July 18, 2005
The softshell I needed had to have versatility. Somewhat warm, breathable and dry with a good fit. The Alchemy fit the bill for me. Marmot Sharpoint was too loose, Arcteryx SV was too cool and tight, and North Face windfall didn't seem well made. So far, Im satisfied.
