In a pinch while traveling I needed to buy a softshell/windbreaker prior to climbing two local peaks, came across this new brand I wasn't previously familiar with, Icepeak, a brand of the Finnish company Luhta.
Their softshell was great, lightweight, comfortable and cheap relative to some others. thumbs up and PASS.
