Ground Glissade Jacket - Men's

For big days in the backcountry where skiing and climbing are on the agenda, the Ground Men’s Glissade Jacket gives you the durable weather protection you need to reach the summit and cut turns all the way back down. A waterproof breathable MoistureTex laminate and fully taped seams beat back snow and moisture, and hidden Underarm zips help you regulate your body temperature on the ascent. When the storm blows in, the fully adjustable hood and drawcord hem seal you off from blowing snow.

Bottom Line: Durable protection for the ups and downs.

Get the right size

By:
November 13, 2009

I got this on Steep and Cheap, and it was a great deal. When I got it, it looked great, the vents looked good, and the pockets looked great, but it was way too big. It felt more like an Extra Large instead of a Large. I'm 6'2" and 165 pounds, and I was swimming in the large. It would have been great, if it fit.

Bad Sizing

By:
September 24, 2009

Tough to review the features when the fit is so bad. Also know that I never used it just tried it on. That being said I seriously wanted to like this jacket. It looks great and has a bunch of usable features plus the price was right. It was supposed to be my new ski/ outdoors shell but the sizing is way off. I’m 5 11 195 lbs and a large all jackets but this large is much more like an XL. I've read this complaint on other Ground jackets so the whole product run must have this problem. I would have ordered in an M but BC is out. Ground appears to be a good company so I hope they standardize their sizes. Also know that it's nice to have pit zips but the zippers are wimpy.

The sizing is too big, I'm 6'0" 165lbs and ordered the large with the idea to layer underneath and I could wear a life jacket and still have extra room. Having said that, I took it out for a hike the first snow/sleet storm in September at the foot of Mt. Evans and it held up great. Stayed dry and warm and it seemed to breath well with the pit zips open on the long uphill sections. Overall a good buy if you can size it right.
