I feel it is my obligation to tell everyone about this jacket! I am a big dude (ex-college football player, 6'3" 285) I found it very hard to find a technical soft shell jacket that fit me correctly, some to small in the chest, some of the arms were to tight etc. This jacket is AWESOME, it not only fits me great it has everything you could want from a softshell jacket, it breathes well from the underarm ventalation patches and is very warm for it's weight. Water resistant to the max so you can hike back down the mountian with out getting soaked, it is not waterproof, but will keep you dry for short durations in everything but the most heinous downpour. The hood is waterproof, but it mostly gets in the way, I have taken mine out completely and the collar fits way way better without the added bulk of a rolled up hood. Bottom Line you will feel like you can leap tall buildings after you put the jacket on but try and contain yourself...well at least at first ;)
