User Review: The North Face Men's Sentinel WindStopper Jacket

Never thought I'd pay 160 bucks for fleece (even on sale from $200), but I'm a gear hound and wanted to try out the windstopper.

Anyway, I love the jacket - I bought it one and a half years ago at xmas and pretty much have worn it every day since, if it was cooler than 15 Celsius. It has completely replaced my other fleece jackets which now collect dust in my closet.

It feels as warm as my 300 wt fleece, and is lighter. I've worn it winter mountaineering numerous times, with just a goretex shell, and was comfortable when moving around (even at -20 C) - although on comes the down jacket when I stop for any length of time.
