Great!

Ranked #1608 - Men's Ski Jackets
December 3, 2008
Bought a black medium early this year, and am thoroughly pleased. I am 5'10", 155 lbs., athletic build. I like longish arms, but without too much fabric in the stomach area. This jacket (M) fits great and is 100% waterproof. Took it into the high Alps in France last week in 20 F degrees (-15 F with windchill), using a function long sleeve + light wool sweater + Marmot Zeus 350 gram down sweater under the Rubicon and was never cold. If you want more base/mid layer, probably want to go a size larger. In black, I use it for professional meetings as well. The shell is light weight material, but the inner side is not "shabby" as one reviewer said, and the outer layer stands up to plenty of rough conditions (branches, ice, backpack). Backcountry = super service. 5 stars for both the jacket and the service.
