Better than your standard fleece

I bought this jacket in 2008 at REI for $90. It looked awesome and fit like a dream, but I decided to return it after a couple days because I thought it was too expensive. For the next 3 years I regretted that decision, until I stumbled upon Backcountry.com selling it ("last year's model") at a discounted price of $67. I couldn't believe it. Since I'd already tried it before, I knew the size and felt comfortable ordering online from BC.com. It was a no brainer. I ordered it immediately and now I couldn't be happier.

This is my favorite jacket that I own. It feels more like neoprene or wet-suit material, than actual fleece, and as I called it in 2008, it seemed like "a jacket from the future." It fits small but the trim-look is the style. I am slim and I never had a jacket that conformed to my body so well. For cold nights it works fine and I get a lot of comments on it.

A note on Backcountry.com - an awesome site that rivals REI quite well with its prices, selection, and lifetime return policy. I'm happy I found it. :D
