I just received my XL jacket. When I spoke to the guys at Backcountry they told me it fit similar to the Arcterix (sp) jackets, I tried on a Sidewinder jacket in XL and it fit perfectly. This one fits much tighter. Waist and torso are very tight while the shoulders are a bit better fitting.

Compared to my XL Cloudveil jacket this feels about a size and a half smaller. I'm returning it for a XXL. I'm 5'11' and 230 lbs. Someone in the reviews said something when in doubt go up a size ... I def second that.

The jacket build is incredible, the angle cut on the sleeves is perfect and the bamboo weave they have on the inside is super nice ... gives it a velvety type touch, if you wear it over a t-shirt it doesn't have the rough feel.

Overall for $109 ... this is a killer jacket. Once i get my XXL and take it out for a few ski runs I'll write a more detailed review.

I have owned other roller bags namely a 200cm Head 4 pair bag, but I was looking for a bag that has some clothes storage. I thought the boot compartment would be good for that. With 2 pairs of skis in the bag though the compartments are a bit on the small side. i was really hoping for much larger storage option, but all in all it's a good bag, nice grips and well padded.

So I got these back in the fall and I posted an initial review and thought I'd revisit after some usage at Tremblant and Whistler. The gloves are the right temp for me, keeps my hands warm without being too hot. The only time my hands got cold was at Whistler when it was -19C and i was holding on to a cold tbar ... i guess that's probably the case with most gloves, once I realized what I was doing, my hands warmed up right away and stayed toasty warm for the full day at -19C ... gloves fit perfect, the leather is amaizing ... perfect gloves in my books!

I've never had a better pair of gloves and I've had everything from Reusch, Dakine, Kombi and other brands ... best glove hands down.

Just got these a couple weeks back, I will update once I get some winter done with them, but first off, I'm amazed at the quality of the stitching and leather. The fit is fantastic and fits under my ski jacket perfectly.

Very impressed so far ... they feel as warm as my old Hestra gloves, but time will tell this winter.
