The processing of the jacket is usual Top: There's nothing to complain about, the black tone is somewhat "darker" than previous model (which I like), light physical activity is the jacket (my feeling) from about 15 ° C always perfectly warm, the Windstopper property than enough to me, the water-repellent properties are mediocre - after a few months you have to impregnate the jacket consuming because rain no longer beads but also does not lead to the deduction because I think that it is in the price range is a common problem with such soft shells.
The Napoleon pocket is a nice idea but now I come to the problem: In contrast to its predecessor, Vaude has unfortunately matched the pattern and the sleeves set sideways, while the predecessor to the sleeves quasi went over the shoulder to the neck. To better illustrate the I invite another Photo high. This construction leads unfortunately to the fact that lifting the shoulders quickly and shorten the sleeves, if you at shoulder height or lifting the arms higher, to the jacket moves in sum up what one often gives you would a jacket instead of a softshell jacket feel on. Add to this that the front seam was strengthened for Napoleon pocket what the jacket missed more "stiffness" in total. Whether I cycle and I bend forward or me holding anywhere from shoulder height - ever the otherwise well-fitting jacket in place.
I will, for my needs in future pay more attention to how the sleeves are attached, because I consider this change as a big disadvantage compared to its predecessor.
I wear at 176m height and 70 kg in weight, the size 48 / S and if the above problem would not, the jacket would 1A.
