Gear Review
Nice Parka, runs large
By R. Markland
Ranked #116 - Men's Softshell Jackets
March 14, 2008
Pro's, Warm, very stretchy & comfortable. Lots of great pockets. High soft collar. Large hood, fits over my xl helmet, adjusts well & zips off. Hip length cut, with waist powder skirt.
Tafetta lining slides over layers & is great for throwing on in a hurry. Two way front zip (Opens from bottom as well for ventilation.)
Cons, Medium size. Feels large & bulky for me. (5'10" 165 lbs.) Color was off, paler than site. The "Gold" was light yellow. I would add seam taping, mesh lined venting zips or ventilated underarms and a collar cinch to this for 5 stars.
