my favorite jacket
By Ingrid Backstrom
Ranked #6 - Women's Jackets
October 11, 2011
The long length, high cozy neck, perfect pockets, bomber fabric, and down fill make this my favorite jacket ever for downhill skiing. Even if I go for short hikes, I can just unzip and open the arm vents (they go up the whole arm!), or just strap it on my pack and put it back on when I get to the top. And this color is amazing.

Hi, I just now saw this question! I wear the Bastille green and I love it, but I also think the black is pretty awesome as well if you are going for more of a stealth look. :)
