I bought the jacket last month and it proved itself both in sunny, warm weather and in colder conditions. The material protects well against water, the pockets are convenient, and although the hood could have a better shape, the drawstrings do the job. The jacket provides excellent insulation from rain and wind. Breathability varies: with high effort there can be ventilation issues. The zips work smoothly and do not come undone on their own. The sleeves have well-made Velcro and wind cuffs. The cut is nice and fitted – technical gear fits under the jacket and its shape hides it well, which makes the figure look flattering. I have the navy blue version and it looks great. Initially, I had some concerns about this brand, as I remember the old Alpinus, but now I am very happy with the purchase. The jacket is really good, it's hard to find anything to complain about. Alpinus has regained my trust! The price at Military is also very attractive. Rating: five stars!
Alpinus Softshell Aso Jacket - Navy Blue
The softshell jacket is equipped with a Hydrotex membrane, distinguished by waterproofness of 8000 mm/m2 and breathability of 5000 g/m2. The outer material effectively protects against cold and wind, while the hydrophobic coating limits moisture penetration into the next layers of clothing.
Soft microfleece, 4-way stretch
The inner layer is made of microfleece, which improves thermal comfort during outdoor activities on cooler days. The adjustable hood, high collar, and drawstrings at the bottom allow for a better fit, while the 4-way stretch ensures the material sits well over other layers of clothing.
4 practical pouches
The model is equipped with 4 zipped pouches: two spacious side pouches, one vertical chest pouch, and one inner pouch.
elastic inserts on the sleeves, reflective Alpinus Safety print
The sleeves feature an elastic insert that acts as hand protection against low temperatures. The two-way main zip allows you to adjust the jacket’s position and adapt it to changing weather conditions. The reflective Alpinus Safety print placed on the back improves safety when moving around after dark.

Review summary
This jacket receives very positive feedback for its solid build quality, neat stitching, comfortable fitted cut and strong value for money. Users praise its reliable wind protection, good warmth, stretchy fabric, practical pockets and overall comfort for everyday wear and hiking. Many reviewers also highlight good durability and decent breathability, although ventilation can feel limited during intense activity. The most common drawbacks are the close-fitting cut, which may require going up a size for layering, and water resistance, which some users find effective only in light to moderate rain. A few reviews also mention imperfect stitching, a hood shape that could be improved and minor marks caused by packaging.

Size: L
Really pleased with the jacket. Quality looks excellent, fit is tight (had to return the medium I ordered and get a large), but the large is perfect with room for a hoodie underneath. Great price too!
-
Size: M
Good quality, even seams. Comfortable against the body, the microfleece on the inside provides warmth even when worn over just a T-shirt. Affordable price. European quality.
-
Jacket seems well made with high quality material. Unfortunately size L was just too small for me at 190cm and ~84kg if I wanted to wear a sweater underneath , so I had to return it. The return was easy process and I got my money back with no issues.
-
The jacket is really great. It keeps out wind and water, and it's also warm. It got me through last winter well. I would buy it again.
-
Very nicely made jacket,excellent for hiking in windy weather. However it is not water resistant to any noticeable degree,significant levels of dampness will soak through within half an hour in moderate rain. Furthermore,once wet it does not dry easily. Not recommended.
-
This is the best softshell I have ever worn. It performed excellently even in subzero temperatures. It has a simple, minimalist cut with no visible logos, which will be appreciated by those who value a discreet style. On the plus side, there is an internal pocket and an additional chest pocket, which easily fits, for example, keys. I definitely recommend it.
-
The Alpinus Softshell Aso in blue is a very good, lightweight and comfortable jacket. It is quite fitted, so not every thicker fleece will sit comfortably underneath it.
-
In my opinion, this is a very good choice. The jacket has a very fitted cut, so if someone has a 'tactical belly', it's worth choosing a bigger size. Wearing it over three layers works well in temperatures down to -5°C, and even down to -10°C during physical activity and frequent changes between indoor and outdoor temperatures.

This is the best softshell I've worn so far – it's lightweight, provides a lot of warmth, and you can really feel that it breathes well. So far, it has also handled rain perfectly and hasn't soaked through. Additionally, I think it looks very solid and is well designed. I definitely recommend it.
-
This is a very good jacket! The material is thicker, warm on the inside and very flexible and comfortable. Four zipped pockets. The stitching is careful and aesthetic. I recommend this product.
-
I've been wearing it for some time and I must admit it was a great choice – it's breathable, warm, lightweight, and provides excellent protection against wind and rain. I most often wear it when riding a scooter, especially in strong winds – and it really does the job. I definitely recommend it.
-
After over a year of use, I haven't noticed any signs of wear. The jacket is carefully made and has a nice cut. It's probably too warm for summer, but for the rest of the year it works great. I recommend it to anyone who's unsure.
-
I exchanged the jacket because the previous one also had holes, probably due to poor stitching. The jacket protects well against the wind and keeps you warm, but it got wet on the shoulders after just 10 minutes in light rain.
-
Jacket made from good quality material, comfortable, light, and the colour matches the description. For this price it's an excellent purchase. It insulates heat well and really doesn’t let water through. Highly recommended!
