Summary

Truly the BOOMERPROOF jacket you need when the weather gets funky. If you have great layering pieces then this is the last thing you need, for your top half, to be comfortable in ALL conditions.

Pros

Material is Soft
Great pockets and features

Cons

Sizes seem to run large

Truly the BOOMERPROOF jacket you need when the weather gets funky. Great storage pockets and features, as well.

However, what I really like about the shell is that it is not as 'crinkly' as other hard shells and the material is surprisingly soft to the touch, which is a huge benefit when you are burying your chin in a stiff breeze. If you have great layering pieces then this is the last thing you need, for your top half, to be comfortable in ALL conditions.

NOTE: I am 5'11" and 180lbs and the Large was too big.
