Backcountry.com Stoic eVent Shell - Men's

Item #BCC0177 | 25 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Funky fit, otherwise solid

By Ranked #152 - Men's Technical Shells October 26, 2009

Was looking at this on a great sale price and tried it but am disappointed to say the fit was the reason it needed to be returned. This jacket is very narrow in the waist and hem. It's made for someone shaped like a "V". I am an atheltic 26 y.o. and medium in patagonia, arcteryx fits me perfectly but not this one so be careful. Otherwise, the jacket looks great, e-vent awesome, reinforced shoulders, light weight, pockets a bit low for technical athletes that will wear a hip belt, but best deal out there for the price if it fits you.
