Love this jacket!

I too searched high and low for a functional, somewhat tailored looking soft shell. I found it in the Marmot Summerset. I am usually a solid XS in just about any brand of clothing, but I purchased this jacket in a small. It isn't bulky and still has a slim fit whether or not I layer. I'm short (5'2") but I prefer a longer cut jacket, and I found the Summerset to be the perfect length. It doesn't have all the bells and whistle that a lot of similar priced jackets have, but it is pretty water resistant (I live in rainy Southeast Alaska!), and keeps the wind out nicely. Some of the other softshells I tried were very stiff and didn't conform to my body. This jacket is soft (the inside has a brushed, thin fleecy feel), and moves with your body. The hood is also nice as it cinches down around your head well without making you look ridiculous. All in all it was well worth the money to buys something that is going to look good for years.
