Great Fabric....Average Design

By Anonymous Ranked #2812 - Men's Softshell Jackets March 17, 2008

The Schoeller Dynamic fabric is the star of this jacket, the design is not. The sleeves and body ride up excessively when you raise or reach your arms. This is what I'd expect out of cheap jacket, not a high end one. It's all in the design and cut of the shoulders, and the Switchback is just poor. Why does Cloudveil not use the articulation and cut of the Rayzar or Serendipity is curious to me because they know how to do it correctly. The best fabric in the world does not make up for poor implementation of it .

I speak from much experience with their goods, and I like Cloudveil goods very much, as I own the Serendipity, Koven, Prospector and Enclosure hooded jackets, all of which are well articulated. This one though, is not up to the standards set by Cloudveil themselves.

Yes, Dynamic fabric is every bit as good as advertised and then some , but I can't consider this one until they redesign it to the level is ought to be at.
