"Free Shipping. Mountain Hardwear Men's Synchro Jacket (Spring 2008) - Alpine Ascents Award Winner 2007 Avg. Weight: 1 lb. 4 oz.; 557 g.

From Backcountry.com:
"The Mountain Hardwear Synchro Jacket is a sick-looking 3-layer, waterproof softshell. That's right, a softshell that's waterproof, not just water-resistant. How so? The Syncrho features a waterproof laminate, taped seams and watertight, welded pocket zippers. Mountain Hardwear sandwiched a waterproof Conduit laminate between a durable, stretch-woven exterior and a soft, microfleece interior to make Conduit softshell. Then they taped the exterior seams with stretchy TufTape, making them impermeable to water to keep you bone dry. This 3-layer softshell is as waterproof as traditional Gore-Tex jackets but more sleek, pliable, and abrasion resistant. Finer details include raised hand pockets that you can access with a harness on, the ever handy Napoleon pocket, and one-hand hem and neck drawcords."
From Altrec Outdoors:
"Engineered for alpine and ice climbing, the waterproof and breathable Synchro Jacket features a distinctive relaxed cut that stands out in striking contrast to most snug-fitting, alpine soft shells. While other soft shells tout windproof and insulating protection, the Synchro is also waterproof and breathable, a trait that's always preferred when you're up a pitch under questionable skies. You can use the innovative one-hand drawcord adjustments at the neck and hem to seal in core body warmth, making it easy to adjust to changing temperatures without adding extra layers. All watertight zippers are welded to keep your essentials secure and dry."
From REI:
"Looking for a jacket that is warm, breathable, stretchy, durable and waterproof to boot? Say hello to the Mountain Hardwear Synchro soft shell! Made from 3-layer Conduit™ Softshell stretch-woven nylon, this jacket incorporates a waterproof, breathable laminate and soft microfleece lining. Flexible, taped exterior seams and watertight zippers ensure truly waterproof protection. Full-length front zipper has a storm flap inside and out for extreme protection. Collar's one-hand-adjustable drawcord and soft microfleece lining seal in warmth. Features two hand pockets, outside chest pocket and sleeve pocket, all with welded, watertight zippers; mesh interior pocket. Dual hem drawcords allow easy adjustments. Standard cut is relaxed and comfortable. Closeout."

I wore it running this morning, it was chilly outside (around 32 degrees), and it kept me nice and toasty - I was sweating but never would have known it, the material wicks away moisture and "breathes" well."

I'm downgrading my review of the Synchro because I'm noticing that the face fabric is not as durable as I would like."

Today, here in Gothenburg/Sweden, it started to rain. I was biking home from an indoor climbing session. Have 10 km to my home and it normally takes 25 minutes."

Cons: you still need a rain jacket if any significant rain showers. I would have been better served buying one with a hood, the neck drawstring gives you a choking sensation when cinching the neck cord, and it's really not that warm, but it works great for what I'm using it for.
