Great fit, great weight, and exceptional at keeping heavy snow, wind, and rain out. It worked well as a shell for everything from touring to on piste skiing. That being said, the Gore Tex PacLite is a LIGHT fabric and will tear easily. It just recently tore for a second time, in a new location though. I honestly don't know what caused it. Strangely enough the tears have been the same size and ' L' shape, maybe a flaw in the way the fabric is manufactured and structured. OR has the lifetime warranty and patched it the first time (which I could have easily done on my own). I'll continue to buy OR gloves and hats, but I'll skip the jacket selection from now on.
