686 Smarty Rise Above Jacket - Men's
Bulletproof

This jacket is awesome. Does the layering for you and you get a nice fleece plus waterproof shell all in one. Layer them up for nasty cold wet days, rock just the shell when the sun comes out and stay comfy in lodge with a dope fleece. The Smarty system is great if you have a pair of 686 pants. My only caution - 686 runs big! Don't size up if you are trying to go baggy. I'm 5'7", very athletic build (broad shoulders) and wear a small in 686. I'm a medium to large in everything else. I took this jacket on a trip to Whistler and was very warm and dry at -18 C (about -1 F).
