5 Star Rating

Skinning

By Backcountry.com Employee May 16, 2010

What to say you get what you pay for with this jacket it has everything you can think of, I took it out for a mid may skinning trip at Alta and it performed as is should the fit is great but at 6'1 ft 171.6 lb the XL ran a little bigger then i would have liked. As far as the sidewinder zipper goes i didn't even think about it when it was up there was no chaffing and when you're coming off the mountain and you zip it down it did feel lopsided it felt just fine. So if you're looking to get the last jacket you will ever need i would recommended it.
