I got a pullover style for only $29.00 on clearance. It is much more useful down here in the desert than my 300 Jacket. I like the pullover style better anyway because it is lighter and less bulky. Customer Service REI has great customer service Similar Products Used: REI 300 jacket |

This fleece gets the job done. I have upgraded to a Patagonia Snap T and love it. I have nto worn the REI fleece since. I acctually found a dreal on the internet for the fleece only costing 40 dollars at mountaingear.com/ It is a site worth checking out. I only wish fleece did not produce so damn much static electricity. Peace out and see you out there. ;-) Similar Products Used: Patagonia Snap T |

It seems there is a new (2001) version of this jacket, so the 2000's are being sold at $35 instead of $55. Now, $35 for a Polartec 200 jacket is a good deal no matter how you look at it :) Good construction and a nice fit, if a little baggy around the middle (and I'm not skinny!) It's comfortable, light and warm. My only real complaint is the lack of a chin guard against the zipper, but for $35 I don't even feel right complaining at all. Customer Service REI has always struck me as a little closer to being users of the same products they sell so I always feel good interacting with their customer service. Similar Products Used: Tried, but not owned, various jackets by Marmot, Patagonia and other REI items. There was a Marmot jacket I really liked, but for my needs I didn't feel like paying $100 or so when I could sacrifice a few features and get a nice jacket for $35. |

A simple, no-frills fleece jacket that's good for the price. The fit is decent, not too snug and loose enough to put layers underneath. Similar Products Used: Patagonia regulator fleece (pricey, but great!) |

Very good for a simple fleece jacket. It has worked well for me for a long time. The fit of mine is good, but I tried on a new one at REI recently, and the fit was much better. Its not nearly as nice as my MHW, but what you expect for 60 bucks. Very nice value. Similar Products Used: Mountain Hardwear Chill Factor, Columbia, Outertech |
