66 North Iceland Blafell Jacket - Men's information:

The 66 North Iceland Men's Blafell Jacket gives you a lightweight shell that can handle everything from midwinter powder days to late fall rainstorms. 66 North Iceland used 2-layer eVENT fabric to keep you bone dry and super comfortable. eVENT provides a 100% waterproof barrier that breathes better than virtually any other fabric on the market. Because of this incredible breathability, the Blafell makes an ideal jacket for ski touring, hiking, and climbing. For comfort, 66 North Iceland added fleece at the collar, elongated the back, and gave the Blafell articulated elbows.


Reviews:

Excellent light jacket but not for extreme backcountry
This is an excellent all around jacket for most activities -- I wear a 44R coat and the Large gets snug with layers but great during warmer activities and for work in the city. The fact that you can stow the hood makes this piece very practical for work (also clean lines and no extraneous zippers). The only time I would not use this is for backcountry type situations with potentially extreme weather -- I use the Glymur 3-layer hardshell in size XL. Blafell is two-layer and the hood does not cinch as tightly as an attached hood -- although also means that this is more pliable and softer than 3ply. Finally, eVent breathes much much better than gore-tex and does not need dwr for waterproofing so washing does not diminish waterproofing.
