Ranked #544 - Men's Softshell Jackets
March 1, 2006
I have used a few other softshell jackets, and this is the best yet, by far. It is thinner than the Mountain Hardwear Alchemy and smarter than the North Face Apex. Taped zippers and pit-zips are not only ingenious, but now indispensable. Why would you not have taped pit-zips? The integrated hood is also great and necessary. This is a great jacket and the price should not make you shy as many inferior jackets cost the same. Great product!
