Arc'teryx Stingray Jacket - Men's
Amazing shell. Best quality you can get.

In typical Arc'teryk fashion, the quality of this jacket is phenomenal. It's the little things that make this jacket so incredible. The hood doesn't have a way to hide it away, but the design of the fabric hold the hood down and back in the perfect location. The high-mounted front pockets are huge and give plenty of room for a front pack.
Many people ask about the insulation -- it's barely a fuzz. I wouldn't call it insulation in any way -- it's a typical hard shell. The only thing it's good for it being soft against your skin if you're in a t-shirt.
This is a great multi-use jacket, from the ski slopes to hiking. It's my new go to ski jacket and is the highest quality jacket I've owned in a long time.
My only complaint would be no mesh on the pit zippers, but a good inner layer should protect against small amounts of snow.
