Thinner fabric than I expected... By Bike Winter! from Chicago, IL on 12/04/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Stylish Best Uses: Casual Wear, Sports Describe Yourself: Conditioning Exerciser Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This jacket is very well made but, when I think soft shell, I think of a midweight fabric with some thickness to it. This is a very, very lightweight softshell... and while it does protect against cold somewhat, it is certainly not a stand alone jacket, nor something that would even be adequate in truly cold weather with a sweater or other layer. This jacket would be great for spring or as a midlayer. (I'm in Chicago mind you). It is very stylish and really well made and I was surprised at how well it *did* function for how absolutely thin the fabric is, but I was looking for more wind protection. I will be keeping it for layering on my bike in the winter and spring wearing. I ordered 2 Haglofs jackets for my husband and they're wonderful. I really like this brand all in all. I ordered a size 40 and usually wear a 6-8 with a 36d chest- the size 40 fits very nicely. Sleeves are nice and long, also helpful on the bike. Just not a winter soft shell.
