MH Men's Torch Softshell

By Ranked #186 - Men's Softshell Jackets April 6, 2007

Was shopping for a softshell so I ordered the Torch and the MH Hooded Synchro. Decided to keep the Synchro b/c it was a little thicker, reviews stated it was more waterproof and the Torch had a very athletic fit that wasn't great for layering. The material is very nice. The fit though is very cut and athletic. I wear a large b/c of my chest size of 41. I am 5'7" and 160 lbs though with a 19" torso length, so i don't consider myself a normal large. for everything but my chest, a medium would suit me fine. this jacket fit me like a medium. if you are interested in layering, go up a size. the pocket with the patch i think is for an MP3 player to keep the pocket more waterproof. there is a hole in the pocket that goes to the inside pocket that i guess would allow you to thread your earphone wires through it?
A great jacket. i would have kept it if i had the money to have two softshells. would be great for mountain biking, running, etc. pretty thin. i may end up getting it in the future.
