Gear Review
Comfortable, Slim
By Dustin McQuay

I love this jacket. The fabric repels water well, yet is very soft and comfortable. I have had several friends and family try it on and they are all very surprised at how soft and comfortable it is.
I have worn this jacket only in mildly-cold weather so far. It does a good job of keeping the wind out and keeps me warm, yet in the middle of the day when it got warmer, I wasn't roasting in the jacket, so it feels like it does a pretty good job of breathing.
