Ranked #119 - Men's Ski Jackets
August 28, 2008
i skied the entire year in this jacket and it performed epically. For starters it is super light (partly due to no insulation). I actually like this because sometimes it is comfortable to ski with a T-shirt under it and other with a down pullover. I am a skinny 6 feet and the medium fits me great. It is absolutely water proof. i used it on the Smith River in 5 days of rain/snow and at the end of the trip i was the only one out of 14 that was still dry. So it is definatly up to any snow storm. The layout of it is also great. the pockets are placed in the right positions and they are big. The side zip is superb! i would like to hug whom ever thought of that. A chaffed chin sucks! i wouldn't exchange this jacket for any other jacket on the market. You get all your moneys worth on this one.
