Montane jacket - Montane Ground Control Jacket - Mens

What a great find, I was not familiar with the brand before seeing this jacket on Camp saver but am glad I found it. Immediately bought more Montane gear after this was delivered.
The jacket is extremely well made, the quality and attention to detail is evident even before you put it on. The current price on Campsaver is a bargain for a jacket of this quality, free shipping and quick delivery too.
The material is soft and comfortable yet study. It has a good two way zipper with a chin guard, no problems with annoying zipper catches on the fabric behind like you get with some jackets. Pockets are deep and warm, they are set slightly higher than usual allowing a backpack waist strap to be fastened. The Primaloft fill is warm yet packs down small for the amount of warmth it provides. The shoulder, waist and wrists are not baffled like the body and arms and are likely a bit tougher for these higher use areas. The hood is also insulated, it has draw strings to tighten down and has an adjustable metal insert for the peak. The hood can also roll down into a thick collar if preferred.

For me, the fit is perfect. 5'10 185lbs, size large. I usually need a large jacket but they are often slightly too big allowing cold air in, this is probably more fitted than most jackets of comparable size but not in a skinny jeans type of way, it fits very well and looks good too. It leaves enough room to layer.

It was purchased for off season hikes and around town on cold days. Looks like it will fulfill both purposes. It is a very well designed jacket. Love it.
