Mountain Hardwear Tenacity Descent Jacket - Men's

Item #MHW0504 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

good stuff

By Ranked #503 - Men's Ski Jackets October 12, 2006

Bomb proof materials and construction as always from Mountain Hardwear. I've made several rough runs through the trees and the jacket shows no signs of wear, except for some green stains. All the details show a lot of thought was put into the shell. Only one item is not well-planned for the true backcountry enthusiast; the jacket is jacket length (short) enabling use of a harness, but the pockets are not the usual Mountain Hardwear chest high slanted pockets, so they are not accessible beneath a hip belt, and actually rub like crazy underneath one. Otherwise the jacket is perfect. It's an efficient fitting cut, with enough room for a mid and base layer. In the pow, even with the skirt zipped in, you'll need some high back pants or bibs to keep out the cold stuff.
