Comments about Mountain Hardwear Micro Chill Jacket - Men's:

This was a gift for my 80 y/o Dad who wanted a lightweight fleece with a full zip to wear around the house on cold days. He likes the comfort and weight. The 100 weight is perfect and the full zip makes it easy to get on and off.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Micro Chill Jacket - Men's:

things that would improve this jacket are sleeve holes for thumbs and added length especially in the rear so that when you bend the back doesn't open up to drafts. perfect weight, not too heavy, not too light.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Micro Chill Jacket - Men's:

Bought this for lounging around and when there's a chill in the air. This jacket feels great and has a nice feel to it when wearing. It fits great. I normally wear and XL with the Windstoper MH so this also fit just right. It also looks very stylish. I will be enjoying this jacket for some time to come!

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Micro Chill Jacket - Men's:

This jacket is really awesome! If feels great to the touch, and works wonders if you layer it under a decent shell. By itself it is good for the decent fall or spring days. Does not block the wind, so it is really breathable and maintains a good balance. If you are looking for a warmth layer, I would tell you to go with the Monkey man jacket by Mountain Hardwear instead.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Micro Chill Jacket - Men's:

I own several light to heavy fleece jackets for layering in and out. This one is the most comfortable and perfect weight / insulation.
Micro Chill is perfect for layering under hardshell or under insulated jacket. It has enough insulation for evening chill around the camp, and you can throw on a down vest or windstopper vest if temperature drops.
I have couple other manufactures light fleece made out of Power Stretch full zip version, but Micro Chill packs smaller and handles wind much better.
It has unique fabric similar to my MHW Links jacket but even softer yet durable. It doesn't stretch out (e.g., Cloudveil's launch jacket) and it snuggles your body better.
I should've bought couple more at the price I paid, I would replace all my T-top pull overs with this since it is so much easier to unzip to ventilate.
I highly recommend this to anyone interested in light fleece jacket.
