The North Face Plasma Thermal Jacket - Men's
Plasma Thermal
By Neil Schott
Ranked #455 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
November 2, 2006
By far the best shell that I have ever owned. No matter what the weather is, rainy, windy, snowy, and all those combined this jacket takes it with no problem. The PrimaLoft insulation in my opinion is just as good as down, and you don't have to worry about getting it wet. Everything works great, all pull cords work with gloves on too, and the waterproof zippers have worked flawlessly. I am just over 6'1" and got the XL, the sleeves were too short on the large. Incredibly comfortable too, it will make your friends jealous.
