Gear Review
Good fit, awesome weather protection, no core venting
By Robert McLaughlin
Ranked #4551 - Men's Softshell Jackets
December 1, 2006
Neg: No core ventalation, specifically in the chest area, price
Positive: walked 6 blocks in face-wind pooring rain and showed up dry (even my head due to the quality of the hood/pulls); my unprotected pants even "felt" drier because of the confidence this good looks jacket has. Good fit, I ordered a large and I'm a solid The North Face medium. Like the unexposed in the hand pocket pulls for the power skirt base hem.
