simple light weight layer   02-20-06
endobendo (2): rank
I've used this for skinning, XC skiing, and biking. It is fine for aerobic activity in 20-30F temps. It works well when you want a light outer layer to handle minor precipitation, it is fairly water resistant. In terms of sheer warmth, there's not a ton. A good fleece or a backup layer is useful if you stop moving or elements worsen. The key to remember is that this is a shirt, not a really a jacket.

This is what softshell is for   04-28-06
pchorl (1): rank
I've always thought that softshell jackets had very limited use. (And I'm not anti-softshell, I have a jacket, and a hybrid jacket, and two softshell pants, one of them hybrid as well.) But with an extended outing, or any outing where the weather could turn bad, you have bring a real shell anyway, so consequently, my softshell jacket stayed at home in the closet more often than not. Until I started thinking softshell shirt, which is what this is. I wear it has a single layer when hiking in warm weather (55-70f). A brisk wind comes up, no problem. A light shower, no problem. A deluge, well, it gives me time to get out my Marmot PreCip shell before I get soaked. And through all of that, it maintains a comfortable body temp. If I get a chill I might put on a very light base under it, like a Mountain Hardwear Wicked-T. If it's colder still I might throw on my Windstopper fleece, either over or under it. There are hardly any products like this on the market. Arc’teryx has a softshell "shirt", but it retails for $150. I wish the fit if this one was a little more snug, it's kinda billowy at the bottom, a straighter, more athletic cut would have been better. And there’s a little zippered hip pocket that doesn't seem to be of much use to me. I will probably remove it.

Great Gift   07-29-08
Mogg (136): rank
I bought this for my brother in law who lives in Pittsburgh and works as a personal trainer. He says that he wears it almost every day and when we just visited with him in Maine, he wore it every day. He said that he loves everything about it. I look like a great gift giver right now...
