Haglofs Windstopper® Jacket - Soft Shell (For Men)

impressed with the windproofing

Very functional cut. Good form fitting jacket with longer cut in back to allow good coverage when bending forward such as is necessary for cycling. Pit zips provide extra ventilation. Zippers are less than perfect and require 2 hands - one to pull the jacket tight and one to pull the zipper. Not as smooth as zippers on my other technical jackets and pants. The bright green color is very attractive and provides good visibility for cycling.

Exceptionally well made jacket. Nice weight, beautiful stitching, smooth outer layer, but not quite as nice interiorly. European zipper side is mildly problematic as well as the fact that it catches on the inner flap canstantly as you draw it to your chin. While windroof, you will feel the cold (below 30F) after a short while. I add a fleece sweatshirt and everything gets comfy for even colder temps and higher winds. Color is vivid and I find the arms to be a little tight from the biceps to the forearm. All in all a beautiful shell worth keeping.

This is a really solid jacket. I actually purchased this because I had been given a Mountain Hardwear Brono jacket as a gift and the area around the armpits were too tight. I upgraded to this jacket and it fits really well. The material doesn't seem quite as tough as on the Brono, but it looks really good and seems to repel wind/light rain well. I really like all of the features of this jacket. The only place that it falls short is the main double-zipper. It takes a lot of effort and concentration to zip. It will never be able to be done with one hand. The only other gripe I have about this jacket is that Haglofs accommodated for large bellies in this jacket, so it seems a hair big on the frontside. Overall though, great piece of gear. Very comfortable, other zippers are great, and the adjustable wrists are an added bonus.

I really like this Jacket, when walking the Dogs the morning's, I appreciate the high visibility around traffic. Easy to modulate temperature with pit zips when exercising. Comfortable wind proof jacket.The sleeves while initially seem a bit long, fit well when reaching overhead, and do not pull down the arms.
