When attacking steep flawless spires mixed with pure granite and perfect neve, the all-around workhorse Patagonia Men's Guide Jacket soft shell takes the edge off the untracked lines throughout its reaches. Extremely durable and breathable, the jacket's 4-way-stretch polyester double weave allows for an excellent, updated fit (including slightly roomier at the bottom for layering ease) while resisting wind, water and snow. A chamois lining on the collar, chin guard and wind flap complements the soft, brushed interior for next-to-skin comfort. A regular-coil, center-front zipper, three external pockets, articulated sleeves, a drawcord hem and simple, stretchy self-fabric cuffs round out the details. The Guide Jacket is recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

favorite jacket
This jacket is very versatile. Can be used during outdoor sports, or as a more "fashionable" piece in town. It is lightweight yet durable. Has an excellent fit. I am 5'11" 180# and the medium fits me perfectly, with room for a base layer. I got the gray color which matches with everything and looks pretty classy.
What I want!
I'm looking for a comfotable and neat jacket. When I find this jacket, I decide at once. And now I'm very satisfied except a little long sleeves. Color-I ordered Blue- , size , design.. all as I expected. If you look for softshell jacket, I recommed.
Best Jacket
This really is a Best Jacket It is lightweight, warm, well cut, and surprisingly durable. It is perfect for just about any situation: lounging around the house, jogging, errands around town, even layering under a shell for cold weather mountaineering. This thing is the most versatile and long lasting mid-layer that I own.
Great Jacket
Looks great and feels great. Really a sharp jacket that should be great in the cold. Pricey though...
More Metro than Techno
Although typical Patagonia quality probably qualifies this jacket for backcountry activities, it seems much more at home around town and in the backyard. Fantastic water resistance and a versatile weight make this jacket any easy choice as you're headed out the door.
