Like it - but not as pictured
I love this jacket but I ordered what looked to be a cream color 'shitake' but it really is a pea green.

Perfect Jacket for the South
My college aged son has this jacket and my 15 year old daughter loved it so I bought one for her for Christmas. She absolutely loves it and it fits her well. She normally ranges between an xs to s, so I bought the small for her because it's pretty tapered. In Atlanta, this would be all you need in the wintertime along with a waterproof shell. She wanted it for more of a "fashion" piece because all the kids at her school wear North Face and Patagonia - so this will be different.

Not to be cliche, but Arcteryx rocks
This jacket fits and performs wonderfully. Lightweight, extremely breathable (you can even wear it indoors), form fitting, and stylish to boot. Warmth level and wind resistance wise, with mild activity (even normal walking), this jacket kept me warm in 40 deg weather with 15mph windchill with a T-shirt underneath. I would advise wearing a windproof shell if just sitting around base camp in such conditions, but paired with any level of aerobic activity you will be warm and not overheating. A warmer, more windproof (less breathable) alternative would be the Arcteryx Easyrider... But its also bulkier. 5'9, athletic/slim.. Small fits perfectly, sleeves long enough, torso long enough. Versatility, as it works well as a standalone softshell, but also works as insulating mid layer. This jacket preferred over the likes of: TNF Summit Series Windstopper Thermal, MHW Alchemy, Patagonia R4.
