Bought two, the black one is great, but the second light blue one is bleeding the insulating material through the seams. After a couples of days, it looks ratty with white material pilling through the seams.
Fantastic. Lightweight and warm. Perfect under my outer shell with no need for more than a t-shirt under the shirt jacket
This is my third Strafe Shirt Jacket, and they keep making them better. This one is softer, warmer, and slightly thicker than the past iteration, yet it still breathes well and can be used as a mid layer on a cold day touring. The face fabric is more supple, with makes it more comfortable, but slightly less durable than the past model (has not been a problem). Overall a great jacket that can be worn as a technical piece, but doesn't look too aggressive.
more of a designe issue, i like to see the logo with the brand name , strafe, makes it cooler
Equally relevant to wear in town or as a mid layer on snow. I personally don't like bulky hoods under my shell, so this layer is great for that while skiing. Off the hill, the shirt jacket is light and breathable unbuttoned, but holds in heat decently well if buttoned up.
