By Backcountry.com Vendor Rep Ranked #1 - Men's Ski Jackets September 18, 2009

I've put quite a few days on my Arc'teryx Stinger jacket, and I'm convinced it's the best ski shell I've ever seen. A few standout points that make it so; extra tall, fully fleece-lined collar. You can tuck in to the collar when it's dumping and blowing and totally hide your face, but it doesn't get in the way while ripping. I like the roll-away hood, because it's not too bulky, and the collar can be cinched from inside when the hood is tucked away; fits over my Smith helmet just right. Nice pocket setup; internal stretch pockets hold contents securely, but aren't floppy when they're empty. Lastly, as with all Arc'teryx ski jackets, fits so nice; no extra fabric, articulated arms move freely with any amount of layers, and bombproof. scratched through many trees (and over a few rocks) and it's in perfect condition! And the color is great, good vis, but not too bright.

Alexandsos, that is why they have the purple symbol next to their name so you know they represent a company.

Brandon, you work for Arcteryx, or represent them, don't you? Would be nice to specify that upfront.
