Millet Premium Evo Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #MIL0005 | 1 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good jacket, some issues

By Ranked #966 - Men's Softshell Jackets August 13, 2009

The jacket is much better than average. Some issues however: 1) zipper gets stuck (caught) in the upper section near the neck, 2) the pockets are accessible from above your harness but they are positioned slightly to the back and can be difficult to open with gloves on. The jacket is a bit short which works well for ice climbing but not for general mountaineering. I'm assuming that the zipper problem is just a defect 'cause it's a quality zipper (water resistant from YKK).
