Backcountry.com Shift Composite Jacket - Men's
Shifty Sweet

Ranked #639 - Men's Softshell Jackets

I had the chance to wear this coat in the resort on a few weather variable days, including a little rain. I'm typically a hard shell guy, but loved the ease at which I could move in the composite. The coat shed outside moisture and also breathed like a champ. I didn't have to touch any extra layers all day. The coat is an athletic fit, which I like. I'm 5' 10.5", and the medium fits perfect.
