User Review: Mountain Hardwear Men's Alchemy Jacket

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $167

After 3 years it's running great. Though a few threads have torn, I won't send it in because I use it constantly and don't want to give it up.

The cuffs are tight, the fit great and it's completely windproof. Not waterproof, but resistant for the first year or so. I've had to recoat it about 3 times in the past 2 years and it's still not as good as new. It's very hot if you move a lot because of the thick, neoprene-like shell but this is perfect when I'm active.

Neck cinch is a great addition as well as the inside pocket. Wish it had under-arm vents though. Waist is short and size is a bit small overall, but you should wear it tight anyway.
