For lightweight missions where a bulky fleece will weigh you down, zip up The North Face Men’s Borealis Fleece Jacket. The North Face used sustainable carbon from bamboo technology to fight odors and increase moisture wicking and UV protection. The recycled fleece body takes it easy on the environment, and a continuous hem-to-cuff gusset gives you unrestricted range of motion.

Bottom Line: A light, technical fleece with the planet in mind.

i love this jacket, if it can be called a jacket. i like to use it as a mid layer for cold days and as a jacket on cool days. if you don't like wearing a heavy fleece under your shell, you've found what you're looking for. the only reason this didn't get 5 stars is that i don't think it'll hold up for too long. the thumbholes and neck wear pretty quickly, especially if the neck if you aren't shaving for a few days. this won't deter me from picking up another one or two if i can find them for a deal.

I can't comment on the momentum, but I have the pullover version of the Borealis. It's a lightweight fleece midlayer with spandex down the sides and cuffs. (with thumbholes) I expect this would be the same...only full zip. In other words, this is for layering and not really for outerwear in anything but mild weather.

Lightweight, good for layering. The thumb-holes are a plus as well. It's made from recycled old plastic bottles, so think of that when you're drinking your next Coke.
