Ranked #397 - Men's Ski Jackets
November 5, 2009
Bought this for skiing last year - the best hard shell I've ever owned (previous include North Face, Salewa, Columbia, Mt. Hardware). Throw a fleece on underneath and it is good for the 0 degree days skiing, without a fleece it is comfortable spring skiing. Arcteryx service is great - son took it boarding (without asking) and put a small tear in the arm. Arcteryx offered to repair (4-6 weeks) for nominal charge, or send me an iron on GoreTex Pro to repair for free (not even shipping costs!). I chose the iron on and have never looked back. Arcteryx and Mt Hardware charge a lot for their stuff, but the quality is great, and service even better. And prices on Backcountry are awesome.

oh yeah - 5'5", 130 lbs - Small is perfect. Just bulky enough to put a couple of layers on under it.
