Mountain Hardwear Alchemy Softshell Jacket - Men's
Do it!

Ranked #544 - Men's Softshell Jackets
December 16, 2005
I have tested my Alchemy in several environments and found it to adapt to whatever I attempted. Mine has been to dozens of peaks, including Mt. Rainier twice. I seem to run a little hot, so I had to learn what layer to wear underneath. This jacket is indestructible. I have scraped it, snagged it, glacier-slid it; it is awesome! I have never wet through and would recommend it to anyone going high and traveling far in the cold. Go do it!
