Description of Burton AK Sluff Fleece Jacket - Men's:
You'll appreciate that the Burton Men's AK Sluff Fleece Jacket blocks wind 400% better than traditional fleece when you're hiking for fresh tracks up a windy ridgeline. The fabric also resists water and breathes like mad, so you won't get soaked with sweat either. Burton gave this softshell jacket an ultra-soft, luxurious velour lining for comfort, and reinforced elbow patches for durability. *Available for US Shipment Only.

Bottom Line: Keep the wind from stealing your warmth with the Burton AK Sluff Fleece Jacket.

Not as good as the old AK Lightweight   10-07-07
Ben S (3): rank
This jacket is based off the old model AK Lightweight fleece by Burton. Firstly, the material is the same. It is Wind Pro with velour back and it is incredibly warm. But, the abrasion resistant panels are a different material. They feel cheaper and a bit nasty. To be honest, the whole jacket has a cheaper feel to it. It seems poorly made in comparison to the older jacket. For instance there is no flatlock seaming down the whole inside of the sleeve. The fit is bizarre. The sleeves are about 4 inches longer than the previous model in the same size, the body is about 3 inches longer but is tighter around the waist. I asked Burton why they didn't put a hem drawcord on it, they said it was because this jacket is a layering piece. Well, what's the point of making styled pockets then? In summary, if you want a decent Wind Pro jacket, the old AK Lightweight (in Sahara!) looks and feels fantastic. This one feels poorly made and has an odd fit, but is still very warm. Hopefully the quality will return with next years model.

Good Mid Layer   12-17-07
Anonymous: rank
I purchased this and the reason fleece. This is a great piece. Fits well as a mid layer. Waist length is good and not too long...fits great with outerlayer powder skirt. Very Warm!!! Perfect with AK outer in Mammoth's 70 mile an hour gusts. The Reason I was not happy with. See my review under Reason fleece.
