Great for spring mountain biking
By KTVerified Purchaser from Moscow, Idaho on 5/7/2007
Fit:
Feels true to size
Sleeve Length:
Feels true to length
Chest Size:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Breathable, Good windblock
Cons:
Torso a little too long
Best Uses:
Mountain biking, Spring trail running
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great color, good fit. I like shirts to hit high on my hip, so this is a bit too long, but overall it's fine. I've loved it for mountain biking this spring. Very breathable on climbs but blocks wind well on descents. Works well in a light rain, but I think it would soak through in stronger rain. Can't wait to use it backcountry and skate skiing next winter!

 
Do-everything shirt
By mtnfreakVerified Purchaser from CA on 1/28/2007
Fit:
Feels true to size
Sleeve Length:
Feels true to length
Chest Size:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Breathable, Durable, Lightweight, Warm
Cons:
Torso Too Short
Best Uses:
Climbing, Hiking and Camping
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great shirt to wear on climbs where wind would make it uncomfortable, but you can't carry anything extra. I like it in the pack anytime, it breathes really well, and except for the short torso and kinda short sleeves, the neck it snug so wind doesn't go down your neck and everything else is pretty good. Could use a chest/arm pocket though.

Feels true to size
Pros:
Breathable, Lightweight, Windproof
Cons:
Could use a pocket
Best Uses:
Active sports cool weathe, running, Snowshoeing

This product was recommended to me by an adventure snowshoe racer. I wear it over a baselayer for added warmth and it cuts the wind. It is easy to add a layer over it when it's cold out and at the start of a workout. I wear it for running and snowshoe workouts.

 
Awesome range of movement
By Spoonetta from Burke, VA on 7/12/2006
Length:
Felt true to length
Fit:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Breathable, Durable, Lightweight, Warm
Cons:
Scratchy seams
Best Uses:
Cold Weather, Extreme Conditions, Hiking and Camping

Great range of movement and details that make it fit the body well.
The seams around the collar and front zipper are prickly and irritating during movement. I don't think I'll be taking it along on big climbing trips. This is a well constructed piece and a great value if the seams don't bother you.

 
Excellent Shirt/Jacket
By SkuabirdVerified Purchaser from Atlanta, GA on 3/6/2006
Pros:
Compact, Lightweight, Styling, Tough
Best Uses:
Biking, Day trip, Hiking

Since the weather in Georgia is relatively warm, I wanted a wind jacket that I could wear year round and this is it! Extemely lightweight, comfortable and well made.
