ruined a great jacket with a cheap zippe By steve the skier from Salt Lake City, UT on 06/24/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Warm, Windproof Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: It would be a great jacket but out of the box the zipper has been an adventure, taking about 1 min to get started correctly on average. Needless to say when you are rush-swapping a layer underneath it in a snowstorm in the mountains this SUCKS. In my opinion, it basically ruins the jacket as a serious technical piece and converts it to a "about town" coat.
Nice jacket, shorter than expected, By Occa from Vienna, VA on 06/21/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight, Waterproof Cons: Not Enough Pockets or Features Best Uses: Casual Wear, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I'm a casual user, but this jacket is very light and comfortable. The hood was particularly impressive. I did find the jacket shorter in length than expected so it does not cover the pockets of your pants (move your phone and wallet somewhere safe). Also there is only two chest pockets so no where to put your hands.
Excellent material and workmanship By HB from Farmington, UT on 06/14/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Moisture Wicking, Soft, Warm Best Uses: Cold Weather, Snow Sports Describe Yourself: Conditioning Exerciser Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Perfect for those cold days on the slopes when its snowing and cold. Solid midweight.

By tnutz from Seattle, WA on 06/05/2009 Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer 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 great light windstopper jacket but it's not a fleece. If you are looking for a light jacket that is using fleece type material, this jacket is not it. They should remove "Fleece" from the description. I would use this jacket as a lightweight jacket for windy or moderately cold conditions. It could be worn under a heavier jacket as well if you needed to layer.
By Suzz from Sioux Falls, SD on 05/25/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This jacket is a great fit - I expected a Medium to be a little smaller, but the way it fits me ended up being good anyway. The sleeves are a great length, not too long but definitely not too short, and the cuff is snug without elastic. Extremely warm for such a lightweight fleece!
By jacket-guy from usa on 05/20/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Windproof Best Uses: Casual Wear, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I was worried that the hood on this jacket would be generic as it is a zip in however, the hood is nice/standard non-zip in quality. As mentioned in previous reviews, the zipper is on the wrong side and a little difficult to operate. Bottom line = REAL Gore-Tex is worth the $, I've been burned by too many knock off membrane materials.

By Paul from PA on 05/14/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight, looks good, Warm, Waterproof Cons: No pit zips, Returned med for a large Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping, Skiing/Snowboarding, Unpredictable weather, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Chest Size: Feels too small Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: In order to layer I needed a large. Other good brands a med (usually) is my choice. I appreciated the heads up from others that the zipper zips opposite what I am used to. The good part about that is it makes me be more careful when zipping. Got used to it quickly and it seems durable. I haven't washed it yet...this is my only unknown.
By pinetar from East Texas (behind the pine curtain) on 05/13/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight, Windproof Cons: Not Enough Pockets or Features Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I've had this jacket for a couple of months, and it has become my "go to" jacket for inclement weather. Lightweight, breathable and of course, waterproof. Went skiing in Taos with it this spring, Denver for Easter and the spring rains here in East Texas. No problem. Would have rated it higher, except I keep forgetting that it is European made, which means the zipper is reverse, so I struggle with that sometimes. Could have more pockets,since there are only 2 external pockets. And for pete's sake, don't let your wife see the price, or you will never hear the end of it! (even at STP prices)
