A comfortable lightweight water resistant hoodie that can be a shell or used as a layer.
This water repellent, air permeable Men's 900 Hoodie from Salomon is great as a light shell but sleek and soft enough to be used as a warming layer under a shell on cooler days. This stylish hoodie is great for a day around town, a stroll in the woods, or some serious spring skiing. When the cold winds of winter blow, it will still do the trick when coupled with a wind resistant shell.

a great deal for $78
I live in Oregon and I wish I would have bought this hoodie before our spring ski/snowboard season ended. The 900 is uber light, warm and surprisingly water resistant. It may come in handy during hikes in light rain. I'm a hair over 5'8" and purchased a medium and it fits well. They didn't have the medium komando green that I wanted, so I had to settle for redwood, which still looks great. Anyway, beggars can't be choosers this late in the game. I visited between 15-20 outdoor gear websites during the past couple of weeks hunting for this thing. Unless you want a black XL 900, as of June 1, this hoodie was available only on Altrec and two others of the many online dealers I searched. And the other guys were charging $107 and the retail $120. Get 'it cheap while you can, it's worth it.

A great jacket perfect for chilly weather to warmer weather. I am about 5'9" and it fits me great. I thought about getting a medium but the sleves would have been to short. It's one of the most comfortable jackets I have ever worn. It's a nice light jacket. All around a great buy!

Large, warm, and water resistant.
I tried on a medium in stores but it was a bit too short for me. I am 6'2" so I went ahead and ordered a large hoodie on Altrec. Though it was a bit larger than I initially wanted it to be, I have gotten used to it and thus far it's a great hoodie. It fits more like a jacket so keep that in might when purchasing. This makes it great to wear on a warm day on the mountain. The price has also fallen since I had purchased it, so this should be extra incentive.
