Solid. Like a toad

Ranked #111 - Men's Softshell Jackets
August 6, 2009
I bought this jacket on a whim before a spring trip to Tahoe. Man am I glad I did as it was my go to jacket for the week. With temps hovering near 50 on the slopes most of the week it was perfect with just a t-shirt underneath. It also sheds water like a toad in a spring rainstorm. A few spills in mashed potato snow and I stayed nice and dry. The fleece lined interior is top notch. Another awesome little feature that isn't mentioned in the description - the zipper is offset just enough that theres no rubbing your chin against it!
I didn't even get to how stylish the slate grey looks with the red zippers. When you're done skiing you can wonder around town looking good in your STH with your google tan, expecting a few compliments or second glances coming your way.
