A Great Technical Jacket!

Ranked #2366 - Men's Ski Jackets
April 18, 2008
I have 2 of these, one an '06 model and the other an '07 model. Both are used primarily for downhill skiing, with the '07 model being my Instructor uniform, (I coach skiing full time in the winter.) I have worn them in a variety of conditions from all-day downpours to white out blizzards and have not been disappointed. You do have to layer smartly because they are truly a shell, but what a shell!! No disappointments with these
