Perfect for skiing or just keeping warm
By James C.
Ranked #1016 - Men's Down Jackets
February 13, 2006
I love on the East Coast (Boston), so I am familiar with very cold weather. I was looking for a jacket that I could use for skiing and that I could wear on a daily basis throughout the winter, and I can honestly say that this jacket couldn't be better. This jacket is a solid as any parka that I have ever seen and is filled with down to keep out the cold, but it is not excessively bulky, which makes it perfect for skiing, too. It is filled with pockets and other useful organizational features (removable down-filled hood and iPod and phone pockets, for instance) is very rugged, and it looks great. A great all-purpose jacket/parka for the next 10 years, I'm sure. In fact, my only criticism is the weather over here, which has been too warm for me to get full use of this jacket, yet. It comes to something when I find myself actively hoping that it is cold outside!
