Who is TOBE Outerwear?TOBE Outerwear is a brand that NS users might not be familiar with.
He decided to create a solution to the problem and thus created the brand TOBE.
Their signature monosuits can be spotted from miles away thanks to their bright color schemes.
The new 2.0 collection goal is simple: durability, functionality and high-performance in the backcountry.
The first time I wore the jacket I was actually in the high desert of Joshua Tree.
It was a REALLY good call to layer with.
However the Fingo Jacket ranges from 2XS-XL for any body throw in.
I would recommend sizing the same as for other outerwear jackets so there’s room for layers underneath.
I rolled back the sleeves which worked alright, but it was a bit inconvenient.
The Fingo Jacket is not insulated, though its easy to fit four layers of clothing underneath.
For me, a puffy, a sweatshirt, a long-sleeved top and a base layer fit nicely.
I looked like astylishteal puffball.
On colder days I am confident that the jacket would be able to fit more layers underneath.
It kept me warm from the cold, dry from the snow and protected against the hellish winds.
Even in the backcountry the jacket was just as versatile.
It makes it much easier to breathe through the fabric when the jacket is zipped all the way up.
There are four exterior pockets as well as a specific interior pocket designed for smartphones.
TOBE outerwear manufactures a material which is a combination of Cordura and SympaTex.
SympaTex is used along with the Cordura to add 100% wind and waterproof resistance.
Even the zippers are a YKK Aquaguard water repellent punch in.
Translation:Their material gives Gore-Tex a damn good run for its money.
(In comparison an Arcteryx Gore-Tex shells cost more than $700.)
For someone on a budget, this might not be the jacket for you.
The fit is sleek, the style is timeless and the versatility is unmatched.
