Definitely "The One"

Ranked #2029 - Men's Softshell Jackets
October 19, 2008
I'm 5'6" but have broad shoulders (size 48-50), waist size 38. Normally wear XL but since things tend to be cut snug nowadays, XXL fits great. Still have room to wear a sweater underneath. *** I wore this walking around all day in London in November 07 and it handled the constant rain and 30 degree weather superbly. The exterior of the jacket stopped beading water, but I never felt wet inside. Only complaint is that the material started piling/fuzzing on the sleeves and shoulders from constant rubbing from my messenger bag. I still think this is a great all around jacket for any occasion. Fully waterproof and very breathable. I own 3 in different colors.
