Beautiful 35-50 degree F jacket

Review for Millet Dual Langtang Hoodie - Mens

First of all, it looks really nice and reminds me a lot of my Adidas Skyclimb Terrex jacket only its clearly more athletic styled. Millet makes a very nice product and this one is slim fitting and very form fitting and flattering. If you don't want to wear it snug on the body, then order a size up. You'll get nice core warmth in the front and the back and excellent next protection. I wish it had an inner zip pocket and I wish it had a little more insulation on the arms. They are extremely light weight so you get a lot of arm area movement but there is no insulation on the arms so you may need to layer under this and certainly size up then.

Perfect light jacket

Review for Arc'teryx Atom SL Hoody - Men's

Man, Arcteryx makes nice stuff. I've never been disappointed in anything with their name on it and the SL is no exception. Its much lighter than the Atom LT and offers a lot less warmth and a lot less bulk. Its basically the same perfect jacket but for days that aren't so cold. I found that a nice base layer under the SL works beautifully even on cold days, too, though. In fact, layering is really the way to go and a super light, comfy and with a little synthetic warmth makes the Atom SL perfect.

Love these!

Review for Prana Wyatt Pant - Men's

Comfortable and stretch just the right amount. I love the built-in belt and the extra touches like great stitching and durability, especially interior and knees. I wear these pants daily and for any activity. The side pocket that is zipped is so helpful and my iPhone 6 in its case fits perfectly. A+

Montane is always quality

Review for Montane Skull Band - Mens

The headband is really large though. I don't mind that but if you want it more snug, then go with Outdoor Research instead. My head is medium-large at size 7 and this is loose.

Love Salomon and love Primaloft so love this jacket

Review for salomon-drifter-hoodie-mens

Its very lightweight yet works great by itself on 40-60 degree days. I often wear it under a more water resistant shell for total protection. Primaloft is really nice and I think Salomon uses a higher grade of it. I've seen this same material on another jacket (Eddie Bauer) and although I didn't own it, I did try it on and was not at all impressed. Go with the primaloft and stick with higher end folks like Salomon for a great combo.
