Looking for a soft shell jacket, so far I have looked at the dhb Windslam Soft shell Jacket, which a few people/reviews say its a little on the short side around the back.
The other jacket is the Endura Windchill, any other jackets worth looking at?
I recently got a Winchill and really rate it. My plan was to use it in cool damp weather when too warm for a Stealth. So far I've used it about 4 times, temp around 5-10 degrees. It is almost too warm, but the pit zips do a grand job and if worn with a thin ss base layer seems to fit the bill for what I want
I love my windchill its really good.
I rate my Gore Phantom
Out of interest - what sort of temperature and for what sort of riding are you wearing a jacket like this?
Just bought an Endura Windchill and very pleased with it. Only worn it a couple of times as it's more of a winter jacket, so it's a bit warm. Wore it on a night ride last week with just a short sleeve base layer and it was toasty. Nice fit and under arm vents.
I imagine a full soft shell would be too hot for biking unless it's subzero - I've got a nice Windstopper walking jacket, but wouldn't need anything that heavy for biking.
I love my Endura convert jacket.
endura convert is highly rates by my mates, i like my montane dyno
Just bought one of the softshells that aldi had left from the biking sale, it's way better than any of the riding tops I own, very warm and comfortable and actually looks like the endura one. I've got lidl ones too but this one is the best.
Have some pearl Izumi ones
Very good and a nice fit
