GoLite Gamut Jacket - Men's
Wow ...
By alpinejames
Ranked #137 - Men's Softshell Jackets
July 5, 2007
Stretchy, waterproof, seam taped, lightweight, durable, breathability on par with a softshell ... and under $100, this jacket is amazing. How does Golite do it?
Be warned, this jacket is simple as simple gets. No wrist cuff closures (though the arms have adequate length and the cuffs mate with gloves well), very basic cord hood adjustment, tiny pockets that don't work under a harness, wimpy zipper pulls.
But all of the essentials are there - storm flap on main zipper, soft protector over where my chin hits the zipper, helmet-friendly hood, and of course fit and function. From 4 straight days of storm on Shasta to super-sweaty climbing in the Sierra, this jacket has done it all. Go Golite.
