Nice Jacket

This is a nice jacket. Was a little skeptical at first but once I tried it on its really nice. The pics here don't do it justice. Put it to the test during a freezing rain, sleet then dumping a foot of snow ski day. Jacket shed off all the elements, kept me warm and dry. Only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it doesn't have pit zips. A minor gripe, this jacket will be worn on cold days only but would be THE ultimate jacket if it had pit zips. See if you can find it in a local shop then buy through this site though. The quality is second to none.
