Not enough warmth

Ranked #1894 - Men's Softshell Jackets
April 23, 2009
I was a bit dissapointed, I thought the Backcountry.com Shift Composite Jacket - Men's was a warmer, more fit for the cold weather of Colorado. I have used other jackets like Outdoor research and North Face, and they are warmer, keep the warmth in the body better and seem to be a better fit against very cold climate like we get here in Fort Collins in the winter time.
