good fleece for a decent price
I bought this as a replacement for a patagonia R4 that was about 5 years old. The patagonia was a bit of a letdown went I tried it, so I went in search of something new. Its hard to find a windblock fleece with a draw cord at the waist, this and the Marmot Afterburner were the only two, and the cut on Pamir is much less sloppy, which is probably the prime difference between the two. The Pamir isn't cheap, but it is at the low end of price for the features and the big name. Haven't had it long enough to speak to durability, it should be fine, my only concern are the sort of plasticy hook and loop wrist tabs.

Nice light windstopper
This is great to wear under my hoody when riding my motorcycle in cool weather, keeps the wind at bay. TNF durability is second to none. It also vents extremely well, in case it warms up through the day. The slim cut allows me to wear my body armor over the top.

Great jacket for everyday wear
Just bought this jacket in the past few months - it works well in the summer! Very breathable, I don't get hot. The heat is able to dissipate fairly quickly. I'm 5'10", and weigh 185 lbs, and a M sized jacket fit me perfectly.
The rain also slicks away as well, so it's pretty waterproof. Highly recommended! Can't wait to try it in winter weather.

Great Technical Fleece
This Jacket is definitely a favorite of mine. It's light, soft, and warm. This is the most versatile jacket I've had, it is completely windproof so if it's cold out it keeps you surprisingly warm given that its so thin. It's good up to ~40F with just a tshirt underneath if Im moving. If it ever does get warm you can unzip and it doesn't get hot. The inside is completely lined with a very nice mesh material. The fleece material is very fine and flat, its thin but soft and feels good quality wise. Since it's very light this can easily be layered under a waterproof shell to really make it a killer combo, good for a large variety of conditions and very comfortable.
Overall this is an excellent jacket and I would recommend it to anyone.

Warm, windproof, looks good
Initially struck me as rather thin, but is surprisingly warn for the thickness. Comfortable down to freezing with a sweater underneath, and a little below if you are active. Roomy fit. Large is good for me. I am 6'2" and 210lb. Zip is a bit stiff, hopefully will free up. Looks good.

Perfect Piece for Anyone
This coat is perfect. Dont be fooled by the new windwall technology - it doesnt even compare. This is 100% windproof as opposed to the windwall than can only claim wind resistance. Price is steep but well worth the extra money considering the durability and functionality.

This coat fits well and blocks the wind. My only complaint is the price is a little steep for the protection that it affords. Need to change to a warmer coat at about 25F.
