By Neil Schott Ranked #90 - Men's Technical Shells April 26, 2011

I've used it all year now and finally can leave a comprehensive review. Jacket fits true to size in my opinion. I typically get the large size for shells, and this one fits the bill (6'1ish 175lbs). It's perfect for fitting some extra layers underneath for the wisconsin winters here. In summer when using it as a rain shell it doesn't look like it hangs off you either, especially with the will placed adjustible elastic. The arms are great length, and the velcro cuffs have great spacing to be used with gloves or no gloves, and not look loose. The hood and neck are perfect for the windy/snowy days when you want to tuck your face down out of the weather. Zipped up, it will reach your nose, and the hood can be pulled down to your eyes. With ski googles on, it makes sitting on the lifts a lot more enjoyable than taking the snow on your face and neck. I haven't seen any water make it through the seems, and have put it through the paces in winter and summer. It doubles as a great paddling jacket on the water too. Norrona really knows how to make some great gear, and when you are finally willing to lay down the money, you can rest easily knowing you made a great buy that you will likely use as your go to jacket for years.
