pretty nice jacket

Ranked #1938 - Men's Softshell Jackets

the windstopper is in the colored part of the jacket only. the gray under the arms and down the sides is the apex strech material. some wind gets through the apex stuff so don't expect this jacket to block all the wind.
the velcro hand cuffs and a 2 cord locks around the waist seal this jacket up pretty nice. it's a bit big in the neck for me and some air gets in there - however i went for a little bigger size than normal so i can layer underneath. have yet to test this in rain/snow.
the material is very soft and pliable. it feels good against bare skin. the zipper has a shield behind it to keep the wind out and the metal of the zipper off your skin. it also has a little flap at the top to keep the zipper from scratching your chin.
i picked it up on steepandcheap for 80 bucks and am pleased w/ my purchase at that price.
