Softshell Varsity Bomber Jacket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a pretty no nonsense jacket and what you see is what you get. The styling of this jacket is just not something I would wear and I can’t rate it very high for a number of reasons. The main material quality seems good overall and the paper tag attached says it is water resistant which is nice. The inside of the main material is a soft fleece that almost makes this jacket a little bit too warm. But it is soft and feels pretty nice. The slash pockets (no zipper or button or anything” have a sort of rough/cheap feeling mesh used on the interior that just doesn’t have a great feel to the touch. On the inside of the jacket Champion did opt to make those stash/drop in pockets so that is a nice touch, but they didn’t sew the entire “pocket”shut so anything small could fall through the corner. The same mesh is used around the neck/shoulder area which I guess will help breathability but again it just doesn’t feel that nice. Overall it seems like a “fine” jacket but I will struggle to find a use for it given the style and the functionality I think there are probably better choices out there.
