Best shell I've ever tried

I am very happy with this jacket. I wanted a thicker, warmer shell that went over my hips and that is exactly what I got! The hood has great coverage and I am very happy with how dry and warm the jacket keeps me. It is not as fitted as some shells, but I like this since it allows me to zip in a fleece without it being too bulky. Generally still a flattering jacket, though.
