Burton AK 2L Gore-tex Cyclic Jacket - Men's
DO NOT BUY!!!
By PAJL
Ranked #189 - Men's Snowboard Jackets
February 1, 2008
This is an overpriced, poorly made, poorly designed piece of outerwear. This jacket is way too long and is not designed for any serious backcountry or active snowsports ventures; at most, it is for trying to get points for "steeze" at the local resort. The pit zips are so poorly made that when you are wearing the jacket with them closed, the zippers stick into your armpits, making the jacket very uncomfortable. The jacket is not very packable and seems heavier than most Goretex Pro Shell jackets. The only saving grace is that I bought it from this retailer, who I can depend on for fast shipment and fast returns processing.
