Best mid-layer on the market

"Highly recommend for early season elk hunts as an outer layer. Still form fitting enough to be worn as a mid layer for mid/late season. Cuts the wind yet still breathable. Insulation where you need it and no insulation where you don’t. The folks at Badlands put some real thought into this piece. As always their lifetime warranty puts them above the rest."

— Eric L. (5/5)
