Ranked #281 - Women's 3-in-1 Jackets
November 18, 2009
I have horrible circulation and live in New England. I was looking for a very warm jacket that I could wear on the slopes, day to day, and out to dinner. Each shell looks and fits great by itself. They snap into each other, which I didnt think I would like, but it's great because it allows you access to the outer pockets of the inner shell and in the inner pockets of the outer shell without separating them. It's extremely warm (inner shell is 550 fill-down) and fits perfectly true to size. The lip on the hood is also great for added coverage in rain or snow.
My only complaint would be that the zipper on the outer shell sometimes gives me trouble (get's stuck at the very bottom), but after having it a few weeks I've figured out how to avoid it getting stuck.
Also, the pocket zippers on the outer shell are tough. You need two hands to zip and upzip, but it's obvious they were made that way on purpose. The weather cant touch anything inside the pockets.
By far the best bang for your buck. Tag on coat itself says $345. Huge deal. Fits exactly true to size and very durable fabric.
