Men's Super Guide Jacket
Reviewed by STW, Feb 06, 2009

"This is a very nice, basic soft shell jacket.

It is un-insulated. It is made from a stretchy polyester fabric. It protects you well from winds. Yet, it breathes very well. It repels water very well, but is not 100% waterproof. The workmanship is excellent."

Reviewed by Jon.C, Jan 11, 2009

"I'm pretty sure this is the jacket that I have (it doesn't say inside what it is) and I'm also pretty sure they no longer make it. But it is a very stretchy, non-insulated soft shell type of material.

However, I wasn't really familiar with this type of garment when I first purchased it, having only used pile/pertex type jackets."
