Solid Jacket
By Sam Hurd
Ranked #505 - Men's Technical Shells
May 23, 2009
This baby got me through Madison, Wisconsin's wettest winter with an nice zip-in fleece. But seriously, great for anybody with a nice zip-in fleece layer to make an effective winter jacket at a pretty decent price. Maybe not quite as breathable as advertised, but the hood zips off, the fleece zips in, and it looks pretty nice. Tough jacket.
