Mountain Equipment Frontier Hooded Jacket - Trail Magazine Best in test
Posted by Trail Magazine on May 04, 2022
Soft shells are all about comfort and versatility, and
thanks to a great cut and a weatherproof four-way stretch fabric, the
Frontier delivers on both counts. But while the inner lining feels soft
even against bare skin, the outer face is pretty tough. The double-weave
nylon fends off breezes and light precipitation, but wicks well too, so
you
rarely get too clammy.
VERDICT
Pretty much the ideal
all-round mountain soft shell, this midweight jacket is well-cut and
comfortable yet protective, durable and fully equipped for long hill
days.
