High tech vs Fashion

By El Presidente from Lake Tahoe on 01/20/2010

Other comments criticize tight fit, longer sleeves and zipper. This is an "athletic" soft shell well designed for that use. Four-way stretch is wonderful but does cause the fixed hood to get a little in the way when not in use. YKK zipper is of highest quality. Comfort is exceptional even at a variety of temperatures.

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
Best Uses:
Casual Wear

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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.

Excellent for cold weather biking

By BikeCommuter from Philadelphia, PA on 01/18/2009

Pros:
Breathable, Comfortable, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Cold Weather
Describe Yourself:

Chest Size:

Sleeve Length:
Feels true to length
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have used it for 2 months for biking and it has been adequate for 80-minute bike rides in temperatures as low as 10 deg. F. The hood almost serves as a balaclava and fits snugly under the helmet. Have also found it comfortable up to 60 deg F. My only gripe is that the hood is not detachable.

I really wanted to like this shell - very well designed with many features I wanted. Unfortunately, it was too small in the chest and the armpits, a problem I've never had with Marmot or Mammut. Judging from other comments, this seems to be a real problem with an otherwise fine brand.

Great Jacket

By CK 14er from Kansas City on 12/29/2008

Fit:

Bottom Line:

Great jacket. It is a slim cut for sure so if you have a little bit of a belly you might upsize a bit. Sleves are very long, nice for being outdoors but be ready for long sleeves. Only 2 exterior pockets and 2 interior. Not bad but I like and Exterior pocket on the chest. Seems like a great jacket though and can't wait to test it in some extreem conditions.

Really like the jacket - wish it had an exterior chest pocket, but still very nice and clean design. Comfortable, light weight stretch fabric that does a nice job of stopping the wind when out on the water.
