The new Challis showed up 2 weeks ago and I am looking forward to incorporating it into the system. Fleece for the win! I have been wearing it around the house and outside, shooting my bow a little with it. So far its checking all the boxes. Plenty warm to wear on cooler spring day as a stand alone, yet, enough room to layer under it and wear it out in the field come late season. I can really see this softshell being vital for late archery. The fleece is dead quiet.
I am a big fan of the grid lined fleece on the interior.
Touted as windproof, the Challis should prove as valued glassing piece in those early season hunts. I have a Spring Bear hunt coming up at the end of May that will get it some time in the field. I will use it through the summer and have a full review towards the early fall, right before hunting season ramps up.
Let me know if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them!
