    Pros

    • Great Fit
    • Windproof

    Cons

    • No internal pocket
    • Windproof

    Best Uses

    • Winter

    Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Men's Alpha Shield Jacket:

    I'm usually a Medium but vary between a S and M in EMS clothing. Glad I went with the M since it has a trim fit.

    The fabric is windproof and has a slight stretch to it. That being said I would say this is more intended to be used as a winter jacket vs a traditional stretchy 3 season or highly active winter use softshell.

    Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Men's Alpha Shield Jacket:

    Interesting cut/fit. I'm 6'0" with 30" waist with slim climber build. The shoulders fit quite snug but the waist is rather large on me. It has cinch cord, which is helpful, but I would prefer the overall fit to be consistent.
    Sleeve length is perfect for me. I usually need to go up a full size because of my arm length, but not the case with this one.

    I mentioned that it is good for climbing.. mainly I wear it when outdoors, but sometimes shed it when actually on the rock. It doesn't restrict my movement, but sometimes just prefer less layers. :)

    If I could change something, I would make the cut of the torso slimmer, and possibly add extra pockets (front, or inner zipper).
