Ranked #2034 - Men's Technical Shells
March 23, 2009
I really wanted to keep this shell when I got it but it was way too small for me in the Large. For Reference I'm 6 FT 220lbs. The arms and shoulders were way to tight for me. I think an XL would have fit better but the length would have been too long and clumsy. I liked the fabric and am considering the Marmot Torre for my next ski shell purchase.
