There are better options

Ranked #808 - Men's Snowboard Jackets

The jacket is great looking, as well as great fitting. The vent system is very interesting as well. However i think there are much better options and $500 is a waste! I think the impossible zippers ruin the jacket. Sure they aren't so bad once u break them in by hand, but try it with a glove on. Rarely does it work perfectly, and the struggle has made me take my glove off many times. I don't really like the zip on hood either, the zipper always starts to work is way around. I ended up selling my jacket, i think there is much better options out there for cheaper prices.
