Patagonia Primo Flash Jacket - Men's
Almost perfect!

OK, I love Patagonia stuff so I couldn't resist picking up this jacket for the new season. Finally a waterproof Patagonia jacket that I can use to ski which also doubles a nice all around mountain and travel jacket (more rainproof that softshells etc). The build quality appears to be very good, but perhaps still a notch below Arc'teryx to be honest, but on the other hand you get a powder skirt, more pockets, a bit roomier fit (which is good for skiing).
Nit picking: I'd love to see a zip off hood and somewhat longer cut in the back.
I give it 4 1/2 stars, but since that wasn't an option it has to be 5 stars/I love it! :-)
