My new go-to jacket for active outdoor activities. Light jacket that I use for a windbreak while hiking and it breathes well. Fits nicely over a lot of insulating layers to for stationary times. I use it for hunting as well when the wind picks up. Coyote color is perfect for that and it is a tough fabric that my packs are made out of so brush won't wreck it. Worth the money even at full price. Sean A. · altitude-sports.com
