The Obermeyer Men's Straight Down Jacket keeps you warm and dry on the ski hill and looking good in town. The Stormshield HP fabric blocks out the wet stuff with a waterproof breathable Entrant GII coating and locks in heat with 600-fill power goose down. When you roll into town après ski, flip up the integrated hood with removable faux fur for a killer look and extra warmth. Multiple pockets let you bring along all the extras you need.

Bottom Line: The Obermeyer Straight Down Jacket is warm. How straightforward is that?

I live 20 minutes from Alta & Snowbird, and with the light snow here you don't need real expensive water repellent fabric for resort skiing (different story, of course, for the backcountry). But you do need something very warm & comfortable to just throw on & know you're going to be good for the whole day with just a zip turtle base layer underneath. This is definitely just a resort jacket, and gets very warm when you bootpack out of Catherine's at Alta. But just unzip the pit zips & front all the way while you're hiking & you're fine a minute afterward. Worth cooking a little on the hike to be toasty on the lift ride back up. Would not recommend this coat for Mt. Baker or Whistler (being a Seattle native myself) unless it were a low-water-content blower pow day. But I would DEFINITELY recommend it for Utah & Colorado, and for anyone who spends snowy days in the city, too.
