Great Softshell

By Ranked #3495 - Men's Softshell Jackets November 20, 2006

I purchased the Sharp Point a few months ago because my old softshell was way too snug for comfort. I had the Alchemy from Mountain Hardwear, which is a good jacket but too snug to layer a sweatshirt underneath. I chose the Sharp Point over The North Face Free Climb jacket because the Free Climb was to cheaply made. One of the best choices I have made. The Sharp Point is wider and a little longer than the Alchemy which lets me layer a fleece underneath. The jacket sheds water just as well as any other softshell and wind does not exist while wearing this jacket. The WindStopper fabric is thick, tough, and more windproof than lightweight Powershield (I am not exaggerating. Look it up). Overall, it is from Marmot so you have to expect quality and that is what you get.
