Ranked #175 - Men's Softshell Jackets
December 23, 2005
The jacket looks great, the fabric feels very nice, and it is well made. The selling point on this jacket is that it's waterproofing. However, that really doesn't add much to the jacket. First, if it's raining enough where you need a waterproof jacket, you also need a hood. Second, this jacket is cut really short, I think about 26in from center back. Also, the neck gaiter needs to be elastic so you don't feel choked when you cinch it shut.
