User Review: The North Face Apex Bionic Jacket

The North Face Apex Bionic Jacket
Above: The current Apex Bionic Jacket, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $99.95

An absolutely wonderful jacket -- stylish and functional. From the time that you put it on, you will find it hard to believe that it functions as well as it does with such light weight and miniscule bulk.

Despite all the praise, it did have one major caveat that unfortunately I could not live with. While the fit of the jacket was perfect, the design of the sleeve cuffs were not tailored to provide a snug fit around the wrist. Subsequently the sleeves drooped past my wrist and over my hand diverting from the look of the jacket and its function. Hopefully in the future TNF will either design a better elastic cuff or attach a velcro tab.
