More Fashion than Function

Ranked #127 - Men's Fleece Jackets
February 3, 2010
Sure its true what the other reviewers have said. Yeah, the wind cuts through this jacket like a hot knife through butter. Yeah, it doesnt shed water. But theyre missing the point. This jacket isnt meant for serious backcountry use. Its meant to be a fashion statement for the college crowd. Still, its a well constructed garment of quality materials. Its warm enough for 30 degree days (without a lot of wind) although a bit on the bulky side. The zip pits come in handy as the day warms up. Not a good value at $160 but who ever pays full price for anything?
