I have been wearing a Smartwool TML Jacket for a bit now and have to say its pretty great. This is the first Smartwool jacket I have owned, I have had a few wool baselayers but never anything like this. It won’t be the last Smartwool outer layer I own. For a jacket that feels like a light sweater it is unbelievably warm.
The jacket is meant for cold days, it is heavy enough to keep you warm and it also breathes really well. I have worn it on long hikes in the mid twenties wearing a backpack, which would normally result in a coat soaked with sweat. But this coat (and me) stayed dry as a bone.You can wear it as coat, or use it under a shell on really cold days.
Hands down this is the nicest wool layer I have ever worn which is no surprise considering I have been huge fan of their socks and other wool accessories for years. I see myself buying a lot more gear from Smartwool it is worth every penny. I have been using there socks and reversible training beanie for years. In fact I was wearing it while riding in the picture above. The TML Jacket is really nice because you can also wear it around town without looking like you are about to go climb a mountain.
