"Soft Shells Done Right" - Review of Backcountry.com Shift Softshell Jacket - Men's

The hardest decision I had with this jacket wasn't whether or not to get it, but which color to go with (ended up with the Sangria). I had a 8 year-old MHW windstopper, which worked great until it stopped stopping the wind. I went with a material I knew I could trust (Polartec) and service I could count on from this site. I'm 5'11 and 185, and this jacket feels like a second skin - a waterproof and windproof one. I have yet to take it out into the woods, but walking in NY's chilling winds and rains all but a constant flow of heavy water will wet this jacket. Throw a good base layer underneath and you're ready for a sub-freezing expedition.
