Arc'teryx Sidewinder SV Jacket - Men's

Item #ARC0519 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Pretty great, but I need more time with it

By Ranked #2041 - Men's Ski Jackets February 2, 2009

Used this jacket last weekend in Zermatt. Had blizzard conditions on the first day and the Sidewinder performed wonderfully.

I have three complains that I consider minor:
1. The rubberized zippers are difficult to zip up one handed, especially the main zipper as it negotiates the curve.
2. I'd like a pocket on my left wrist.
3. The hood is difficult to adjust with gloves on.

I haven't used it enough yet to say that I love it, so 4 stars for now.
