The TREW Swift Soft Shell Jacket makes for a pretty warm snug liner. Trew makes some pretty good outerwear and this is a good mid-layer or a nice mild weather stand-alone jacket.

Turn Off’s: Size L Jackets that don’t fit well around my chest, super tight Size M Pants that I can’t get up over my thighs, traffic and people who can’t park inside the lines.

This works great for a thin warm layer or on its own in dryer conditions. Some prefer fleece lined soft shells and others prefer puffy’s for a mid layer like this. Each has their own strengths and weaknesses. Some love the thin but warm but heavier soft shell and others like the less contoured but generally lighter puffy.  Both do the job well.
