Worth mentioning that most MH gear is made for a slimmer/more athletic body shape, which is noticeably different than most brands.
Edit: And there's the Ghost Whisperer further up on the front page. I long for the days when the most general link for a sale was posted once, and discussion about specific items was centralized. There are currently four front page entries for this one deal, which seems ridiculous/counterproductive.
Big sad.

I have access to the Columbia employee store, so I've been able to try a wide variety of stuff across all their brands, and my impression is MH is cut for athletic frames while Columba is cut more for the general population. My primary hobbies involve a high activity level (club sports, road biking), and that's how I've met most of my friends. It's a running gag among us how tough it can be to find clothing cut for athletic builds (wide shoulders/chest, slim waist, large thighs/calves) for all genders. For me specifically: trying on most non-tailored men's dress shirts often varies from frustrating to hilarious. I share a lot of deals with teammates, so I know a lot of the women do comfortably wear MH tops/jackets in Small and Medium.
Most athletic/outdoor brands tend to cut their lifestyle lines fuller than their active lines, so people shaped like me end up with off-field tops that either pinch my pits or are noticeably loose around my waist unless I limit myself to specific cuts that are often out of stock during sales. MH is great because anything I buy from them will probably fit pretty well.
