I gave this jacket as a birthday present for my boyfriend. He is really picky, but absolutely loves it. He is so excited because he can wear the jacket from hiking to going out at night.

Great jacket that fits the bill for every use. Provided warmth in snow, high winds and light drizzle in Moab, Utah area. Perfect to take the chill off in early morning and evening hours. Lightweight and low bulk make it a great add to the daypack for any anticipated or unanticipated mountain weather. I did not have the opportunity to test in a hard rain, but I usually carry a light weight rain jacket in the pack as well.
Fit is tight. I'm usually a medium or large fit (6 feet tall, 185 lbs.). Order one size larger than usual if you want to layer.

I own many different Mountain Hardware products from tents to shirts. The Windstopper Tech jacket is performing as expected, perfect.

This was the first time I bought outdoor gear by Internet, and I was a little worried If I would get the size of the jacket right. In the end, I had three good surprises:
1) [...]
2) It fits perfectly!
3) It's as lightweight as advertised in the website, and feels really warm.
To summarize: an ideal fleece jacket for those late autumn or early spring days in the mountains.

I originally bought this for hiking, but it is so great, I now wear it everywhere. Perfect as a midlayer for snowboarding, hiking, walking the dog, or just going to the grocery store. Also looks good enough to wear in restaurants.

The wind stopper element in the jacket makes it able to be worn by itself at much lower tempratures than you would at first think. It was sixteen degrees this morning and I was comfortably warm on a ten minute walk with just a long sleeve tee as my base.

This jacket is exceptional at keeping the wind away. Its light-weight fabric allows for layering if needed and a remarkable wind-stopping capability. It really is amazing that such a light jacket can keep the cold and wind out.

I bought this originally for day hiking in Marin. But at this point, it's my primary jacket because it solves all of my problems. It looks good enough that I can walk into shops and restaurants without feeling "dressed down", it keeps the wind out, but doesn't get too hot.
