Took this softshell out on its first camping trip this weekend to a middle west ish Utah Desert. It blocks wind very well, not 100% but enough to neutralize it and keep you happy. It resists dirt better than expected, resists water very well and is comfortable.
I bought this softshell with one thing in mind: I want something very light (warmth and weight wise) and this fits the bill. I overhead a lot and needed something light and breathable for temps in upper 30's and above. So far its perfect.
