different than expected

Ranked #1169 - Men's Softshell Jackets
December 31, 2010
when i researched this, i couldn't find one in stores to try on- so i took a leap of faith and ordered one. based on description, i was expecting a heavier insulation....this is fairly lightweight. it is perfect if you're in motion...not so warm if standing still for a long period. it totally sheds wind and breathes out body heat & perspiration very well. sheds water fairly well (like any softshell). size XL fit me at 6'1" and 230#...an athletic fit, not much room for layering. not quite what expected, but a very functional piece for cold weather activity
