        BWCAW winter camping, ideal jacket, it's fantastic! It's light weight and perfect for when the wind picks up in the middle of a large frozen lake. The adjustments on the hood are more then sufficient. What sold me on this jacket are it's HUGE pockets, perfect for holding liner gloves warm mittens and bulky outer mittens. Left chest pocket is great for keeping my lighter warm. It's not water proof, but when the weather ranges from 20 to -35 it's a great outer layer over a down "town" The jacket.

        Comments about Mountain Hardwear Embolden Jacket - Men's:

        I have an athletic built and this jacket fits me perfectly. I checked 'breathable' as a Pro and a Con. Pro because it does breathe. Con because it does not when you are seated (like in a car). It also lacks arm vents that I'd expect in a jacket that costs this much. However, overall, this jacket has replaced two of my jackets.

          Great overall jacket for wear to work, gym, light to medium intensity outdoor activities. Great fit - fitted, but not too fitted that you can't add baselayers.

            Comments about Mountain Hardwear Embolden Jacket - Men's:

            I own many fleece jackets and I'm amazed how much warmer this jacket is than any of them. Its good for just about any conditions. I much preferred the cuffs on a previous jacket where it was just slightly strethcy, rathern than velcro. Nonetheless if you can afford it, this jacket is awesome.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

            Comments about Mountain Hardwear Embolden Jacket - Men's:

            Tested this jacket in a stormy day with 30mph sustained winds and loved how it performed. Excellent adjustability in the hood and waist area. Breathed well enough in 50 degree weather on a multipitch route but the hand pockets are a bit too low to use with a harness (but there is an excellent chest pocket). Was definitely a bit thinner than what I was expecting but it works perfectly for layering. I am 5'8 and 140lbs, medium fit me perfectly.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
