The North Face Astor Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #TNF4321 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

great jacket!

By Ranked #1691 - Men's Softshell Jackets May 14, 2010

I own several tnf jackets, and this one is certainly top of the line. This is one of their first soft shell jackets with fully taped seams, which means it's waterproof and windproof but still moves freely and doesn't crackle like most hard shells. This jacket is loaded with almost every possible feature, definitely built for the gearhead. Plus it has some kind of micro polyester lining, not quite as warm as the apex bionic but very close. I wouldn't need another layer in temps around 40-50 if I wasn't moving around. The fit is a bit more relaxed with a slightly longer torso, but the arms are thankfully not too long like other tnf jackets. Overall a great stand alone jacket for all-weather activities, or an excellent winter jacket with layers. Well worth the spendy price tag, bells and whistles all the way!
