Mountain Hardwear Alchemy Softshell Jacket - Men's
My two cents

Ranked #1369 - Men's Softshell Jackets
October 4, 2010
I've owned this jacket for 5 years now and its still my go to nearly everyday fall through spring. I'm 5'10 150 and a medium fits great I can get a base layer and a light sweater or fleece underneath. The only problem is its hard to put on the jacket when a wool/fleece sweater is sticking to the fleece liner of the jacket. Secondly the side panels and arm panels are made of powerstretch and are not windproof. It can make for some pretty chilly decents bombing blues on my snowboard. Great jacket just a little chilly at the top of the mountain.
