Westcomb Vapor FX Hooded Jacket - Men's

Item #WTC0046 | 124 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Good and waterproof

By Ranked #988 - Men's Ski Jackets November 30, 2010

This is a sweet jacket. Although I've only skied it two days so far the fabric seems good and durable, and the event is amazingly breathable for a waterproof softshell. The only thing that i don't like is i am quite skinny and lanky, and to get a shell with the proper length fit i had to get a large, but the large fits baggier than i like for a backcountry touring jacket, but really i hardly notice the size and for someone with a more muscular or stockier build it would probably fit fantastic. that said the large helmet compatible shell cinches down well for just a hat and the pit zips work great. I would definitely recommend this shell for a waterproof and comfy shell. Also the event fabric is not as crinkley as Gore-Tex fabric.
