Superlight WP/breathable jacket
By ADKben
Ranked #2506 - Men's Technical Shells
November 1, 2007
Big fan of this jacket; the fit is trim but the cut is longer than in years past MH jackets. I've never been able to wear MH because of the short cuts of the jackets but this is perfect. The jacket is really incredibly light! I don't have any negatives other than I think MH released this jacket in the wrong season! The hood is also helmet compatible but could have added an extra draw to make it fit better w/out a helmet. but its all about the weight savings, so i understand. Overall I think its well worth the price; i live in Colorado so having a super intense gore-tex shell is overkill as we rarely get rain; this is perfect for the squalls and is light enough to always be put in the pack!
