Already captured by the magical qualities of North Face products, it was the Monarch orange colour that grabbed my attention first. Being an extreme mountainbike enthusiast and looking foward to another very British summers riding, I needed a new lightweight waterproof jacket that was robust but that would also make me stand out from the crowd. I love to wear this jacket everywhere now as it keeps me very dry but cool at the same time and i`m amazed at how many people have complimented me on it`s stylish looks. I would buy this jacket again and i would be keen to see if North face have developed an even better chin guard. Ultimately it is great buy.
