wonderful fall - winter jacket By amok from New Haven, CT on 05/02/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Stylish, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Extreme Conditions, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Outdoor Professional Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a great jacket from the non-insulated collection of CG - schoeller c_change membrane, and the stretchy WB-400 soft shell exterior. The jacket fits and feels great, snug but not too tight. The zippers are very waterproof. My only gripe is that the hand warmer pockets have no zippers on them but I don't think that even when using this jacket for skiing in deep pow, the snow would get in as the pockets have a flap quite effectively covering the opening. The length is great, not too long not too short. I have previously purchased the Tofino bomber jacket from CG, which is a very similar piece, but was disappointed with the external material (not stretchy at all and quite movement-limiting) and the short cut. This is jacket is definitely better in many regards and looks great whether walking around town or skiing (though the hood does not fit over a ski helmet).
