Great lightweight fleece

By James Cooper Ranked #136 - Men's Fleece Jackets March 11, 2011

My new favorite lightweight fleece, it's perfect to wear casually to the gym or for busy outdoor activities. Compared to MH's Monkey Man fleece, the Octans is lighter and breathes better. However, both jackets work great underneath a shell when the winds pick up. Ive noticed no pilling after washing. Large, soft hand pockets are nice and the chest pocket is just right for a wallet, cell phone, car keys, etc. With just a lightweight, breathable shirt underneath, I noted only minor sweating after a three mile showshoe jaunt in the low 30's with a light breeze. Size large fits my 6' 2" 205 lb frame very well. Friends like it, the GF likes it, and I love it. Five stars.
