Mountain Hardwear Tanglewood Softshell Jacket - Men's
Hard to Imagine!

Ranked #3931 - Men's Softshell Jackets
November 19, 2007
The Tanglewood Softshell Jacket is well constructed, (especially with its waist draw cords that keep heat in when you want it), beautifully styled, and more importantly, for the cyclist, at least, it is amazingly wind resistant. The material is 3x or 4x's more effective than what you would have expected or hoped. On my first ride down Deer Hill, on a very cold and windy day, I kept wondering what this feeling on my chest was all about. Eventually, I realized it was the wind. Hard to Imagine! Warning! You must wear an insulator underneath on cooler days, like Hyperdry, Powerstretch, Transition, or one, two, or three, if it is very cold. Oh!. The morning dew is forming like little rain drops on my sleeves or is that the rain? It does it all.
