Mountain Hardwear Exposure II Parka - Men's
Pros and Cons
By Hardcore Poser
Ranked #2235 - Men's Ski Jackets
December 20, 2008
Overall I like the jacket, but there are some issues I have with it.
Pros: I love the material, it does not get stiff and cold weather, the hood roles relatively smoothly up to be hidden away, The arm length and total length seems to be exactly right. It feels like a jacket that should cost twice as much as I paid.
Cons: The powderskirt is not removable and sits WAY too high from the bottom, making layering very difficult. I am 5'10" and have a relatively short trunk. If I button the powderskirt anything under it bunches up and is uncomfortable to me. The hood is not removable, only rolls up. There is no media pocket, although the chest pocket is pretty nice.
