BEST Jacket

By Ranked #213 - Men's Ski Jackets January 16, 2009

WOW... where to start... got the cool glade green color, always on stage... love it. Friends and wife can always find me. They pretty well thought of everything for this jacket... lots of big pockets... only problem... remembering which pocket I put something in... using it often helps with the remembering. The left outside chest pocket will carry 2 bottles of water (Ok, 2 beers, careful opening). Easily layers well for the cold, high (warm)collar that will protect the face really well on the "I'm being pelted chair ride or standing on top of some windy ridge". What it could use is a zipper pocket in addition to the mesh pocket on the "right inside" of the jacket. Negitive... outside hand pockets are hard to zip open and close... maybe they will loosen up after some more use. This is the closest to what I would call "the perfect jacket I would design" and want to wear. I would buy it again (but it has a lifetime warranty)so I may not need to. Steep on the $$$ but hey I figure I will use it for at least 8-10+ years and that puts the use/cost factor in the "it makes it a good buy" column. I have already recommended this jacket to people who asked me about the jacket... lots of compliments.
