Stylish, slightly boxy hybrid fleece
This is a stylish, comfortable fleece with a nice feel and an overall slightly boxy cut. It's pretty warm - good for Colorado winters, with a baselayer below. I personally love wool, so I'm a fan of this approach, which combines wool with gridded fleece on the interior.
It's not a particularly technical piece. It won't be going with me on long backpacking trips because it doesn't pack down small, and doesn't have a waist cinch to protect against wind. But it's great for a hike, or just to wear around town.
One interesting aspect is the chest pocket, which is a little lower than you'd usually expect. Mountain Hardwear does this in some of its technical outerwear so that a backpack sternum strap doesn't interfere with pocket use - so that's another point for hiking, but I'd say it looks very slightly odd.
