Mountain Hardwear Synchro Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #MHW0478 | 0 in Stock
3 Star Rating

So close to perfect

By Ranked #2602 - Men's Softshell Jackets August 6, 2009

Waterproof and warm; but it started to pill after less than a year of use (its now 2.5 years old). It is pilling pretty much everywhere something rubs the jacket such as arm to arm and from backpacks. Same thing is happening to my friends that was bought a year ago to a much worse extent. I also think the mesh on the inside of the pockets is going to wear through with more use. The jacket otherwise has great features and a very durable and weatherproof exterior. I am ~6' and 150 lbs, I went for the large. Its big around the body so I can layer a lot, the arms are about the correct length. Great for the job, but for the money I expect better quality.
