The North Face Apex Bionic Softshell Jacket - Women's

Item #TNF5205 | 1399 in Stock
2 Star Rating

Stiff, windstopper with bulky arms

By Ranked #1474 - Women's Softshell Jackets November 27, 2007

This is a disspointment from my favorite North Face line. I already own 4 other TNF products and this is the one in the back of my closet. It has an effective windstopping material with the apex fabric but the arms are very bulky and then slim down dramatically towards the wrists so you look lik you have very broad shoulders. Doesn't keep you warm at all in cold weather under 60 degrees F. Has a nice cut with it being longer in the back and higher in the front but i wouldn't recommend this if you want a streamlined windstopper jacket. I would go with the North Face Pamir for that-- a lot more expensive but you are getting way more with that jacket.
