I own 3 of these
That's right. I love this Windstopper model (2009) so much I panicked when I learned that MH came out with an update. So I bought one more in addition to the two that I'm already using regularly. I have one sapphire and two black. I bought the second black one at 50% discount on this site. I realized later on it was their absolute last 2009 MH Windstopper on Altrec. It's a great sweater for any season and provides excellent protection when there's worse than a breeze blowing around you. You can be sure you won't feel the chill that your face or ungloved hands are feelng. Or if you're hot from hiking and do need a cool down, all you do is open up the pit zip, which works like a charm. I am so impressed with the pit zip feature that it's pretty much a deal breaker when any sweater I'm considering adding to my closet doesn't have it. On really cold wintry conditions, I'd layer one of my 800-fill down sweaters over it and I'm good to go. Or I put a waterproof shell on. On a hike over the boondocks at the Harriman State Park in NY state last winter, that's exactly what I did. The TNF shell also has a pit zip, so with both that and the sweater's pit zips open, I never overheated. I know I would enjoy my MH's for years and years to come. It's styled so will never go out of style; it looks great with hiking pants or plain jeans for a stroll about town. I would consider the updated version (which looks to me more like a softshell, btw) someday maybe. I'll probably partially finance that purchase by selling my newish TNF Windwall, which doesn't have pit zips and which I regret buying.

Great Jacket
Excellent product and great value. Fits a tad small in the chest arm pit area, so size up if you are between sizes. I would highly recommend this product for everything from casual nights out to technical mountaineering.

Great Jacket
Worked really well with layers of other Mountain Hardware apparel. I have the Gortex jacket as well as a couple of the shirts. It was easy to ventilate without taking off my pack.
