- Articulated elbows and a relaxed fit enable comfortable, unrestricted skiing, riding, or touring
- Underarm zip vents dump excess heat
- Adjustable, removable, and helmet-friendly hood provides increased storm protection while fleece on the chin and back of neck add insulation and dry quickly
- Removable powder skirt seals out the snow during magnificently deep days
- Powder skirt attaches to compatible Patagonia snow pants (sold separately) for a seamless barrier against the deep snow
- Two zippered hand pockets and two zippered chest pockets hold your on-mountain essentials

I wore last year's model for a whole season, but the lack of a double-zipper caused me to send it back; sitting on the chair or in a car the jacket puffs way out because you can't unzip the bottom. I tried this year's jacket and the fabric is very stiff and the chest pocket hard to access; why no zipper like last years. A good jacket but for the zipper.
Finally - my one go-to ski jacket

First, I have an obsession with ski jackets. Second, I've gone through so many because I've never been as satisfied with any of them as I have been with the Patagonia men's Rubicon Rider.
I ski in the west, experiencing powder days, extremely strong wind days, single digit days, Bluebird days - you name it. This jacket handles them all. The weight of it is just perfect, it breathes extremely well, it's always toasty warm but has yet to overheat me even on days when I'm doing 20-plus runs and more than 25,000 vertical, and although not advertised as wind proof, it certainly blocks out the most biting howling gusts - you'll appreciate the insulated, oversized, helmet-compatible hood during long lift rides.
It has plenty of added features, such as the zip-off snow skirt, the pit zips, the forearm zip pocket (perfect for a trail map), the internal headphone opening and cord holder for the Napoleon pocket, the goggle pocket inside, etc. my favorite is that Patagonia made the neck high enough to act as a fully fleece lined gator, comfy all the way up to the nose and goggles. The synthetic insulation says warm when wet - seriously, no detail is lacking.
Best of all is the fit. This is the puff jacket for guys who don't want to look like Ralphie's little brother in A Christmas Story or the Michelin Man. You get all the warmth of a down-like jacket without the bulk of most puff. The sleeve length is perfect and the cut is relaxed but not baggy.
Patagonia quality is legendary and Backcountry's service couldn't have been better. This purchase accomplished the unthinkable for me - it made me stop shopping for the next ski jacket.

Best jacket to keep me extra warm in low temps. Works for a wide range of temps, from low 20s to teens to single digits to subzero--just alter your layering underneath. I own 2 of these and truly love them...

For cold, sunny days nothing beats this coat. The only problem I have is on reasonable cold days actually overheating if I am side country hiking as I am a burly dude (235lbs) . Great jacket for hitting the town and bar hopping when its freezing. Good storage for anything you might need for the day.
