I might ask for a technical softshell jacket/hoodie for Christmas, what are some good ones.  I like the Oakley Apex but they are impossible to find but something like that would be nice.

I have a Marmot Superhero. It is the most comfortable softshell I've ever worn. It's so warm and has really nice breathability.

Actually, the Burton Hood is really decent believe it or not. I'm partial to the HH News softshell as well.

although good, i think arcteryx is genereally REALLY expensive. Mountain hardwear is just as good if not better than arcteryx and by no means is cheap, but its a bit cheaper than arcteryx. Also, check out marmot, north face (tends to be a bit overpriced), sierra designs, andd there are some others too. But personally, i would go with mountain hardwear

i would definitly steal it back through any means possible.

the oakley acid rain jacket is this years apex.

dogfunk has some pretty nice softshells: http://search.dogfunk.com/?i=1&id=xVFMfqQ5&mv_session_id=xVFMfqQ5&q=softshell&t3=Men%27s+Clothing--Men%27s+Jackets--Men%27s+Softshell+Jackets&u1=q&u2=t3

i picked up a sweet DC one last season but it had a busted zipper and they ended up straight exchanging it for an apex because the DC's were out of stock in my size. definitly a nice softshell and good people over at dogfunk/tramdock/backcountry.com
