Stoic Monolith Softshell Jacket - Men's
Stoic Monolith - my best softshell
By Jeff Mikaelian
March 16, 2011
I have acquired a lot of softshells over the years and have not been really excited about any of them. They were not very warm or worked well in only a specific range of conditons.
The Monolith works great as a casual jacket( Warm) and has proven to be a great ski shell too. I have worn it on days that turned out to be colder and winder then i anticipated and stayed warm. The tall collar and long, tapered sleeves keep the cold out. And the material and welded seams really keep out the wind.
I would differ on those saying it is baggy. I got a Medium. I am 5'10" 155. It is a bit loose around the chest, but that allows room for a good mid layer. I would say the arms and waist are more of an athletic fit.
