Partner up with Denali Wind Pro

By Esoteric Ranked #1540 - Men's Technical Shells February 26, 2010

Zip-in compatible with Denali Wind Pro, and it is really warm and comfortable. Ordered both jackets in same size, this is designed to accommodate a heavy layer. Compared to a generic TNF Hyvvent shell that swooshes around, the material on this jacket feels much like the Gore Windstopper material on my Arcteryx Kappa Ar. Yes its soft, but do not fear, the shoulders and upper arms are reinforced with thicker stiffer "hard shell" polyester for durability. Hood is removable, pockets are fleece lined, and the inside of the jacket is also fleece-like mesh lined in the torso areas, thus increasing warmth as well as comfort when liners not zipped in. This feels more like a substantial jacket rather than just a thin light shell, so buy it for what it is, it is heavier than the average technical shell due to all the extra zippers.I love the fact that it is clean and inconspicuous enough for around town wear. I'm detail oriented, there is a "Goretex" logo on the left wrist that color matches the fabric; at least in my black one the logo was also black, which is classy (I wish they'd color matched the TNF logo as well). Although I didn't purchase this particular one here (due to unbeatable sale), all my other jackets are from Backcountry, their service, shipping speed, and return guarantee are all unbeatable.Size: 155lbs, 5'9. Small in both Denali Wind Pro and Mtn Light fit comfortably.
