Arc'teryx Venta SV Softshell Jacket - Men's
Best Shell Ever!!!
By Sung
Ranked #375 - Men's Softshell Jackets
December 31, 2011
By far the best soft shell I've ever owned. I'm a jacket junkie and this is truly my favorite one. It's super light, great fit (I'm 5'9" 145 lbs) medium, soft and bombproof. It's looks and feels great. The temperature was 30 degrees and some wind and I wasnt cold at all. Wasn't warm either but I had a loose knit, very thin long sleeve on underneath(you can almost see through it), practically like wearing nothing underneath. I didn't give zippers much thought until I put the venta sv on. Super easy and fast and started noticing why people keep mentioning how great the zippers on this thing. All around a perfect jacket. No wonder it was awarded the editors choice soft shell by outdoors gear lab. Highly recommend and worth every penny!
