Ranked #1547 - Men's Fleece Jackets
December 29, 2009
Decent jacket when I was able to snag it on sale for $100 last year.
I found it to be a good insulating layer under a shell, though as others mentioned, it's a bit bulky. I'm 225 #'s and went with XL, which fit in shoulders but left a lot of material around the waist.
I've also worn this as an outer layer over a base layer, and it's kept me more than toasty on 15-degree days on the trail with a heavy pack.
In retrospect, a wind blocking fleece would have been a better choice, but for the money (on sale), I'm able to make do.
