Burly, breathable, and well designed hardshell
This jacket has so far lived up to the hype. I've been able to take it hiking in New Zealand and around the PnW and its held up well to the rain, wind, and a little bushwacking. It feels very well constructed, and while I would've loved front pockets, the storage and design are well thought out. The pit zips are well designed and easy to use (maybe the easiest out of any i've tried), and offer good ventilation while moving. This jacked is overkill for daily city use, but if you're going up into the mountains or live in a rainy place its well worth the money. 5'11 185lbs in a Large fits very well with a few light layers underneath

Solid Jacket
Very breathable and comfortable. Fit is good and arm length is perfect. Great for backcountry tours and in-bounds storm days.

Great shell
Amazing shell. Great for skiing both resort and backcountry. Wish there was lower pockets or an arm pocket for a ski pass but otherwise an amazing jacket.

Good quality, tailored fit
This jacket is great, love the color, great performance. It is a tailored fit in the torso, so take that into consideration for sizing. That said, I was still able to wear a heavier mid layer underneath if needed without sizing up. I've worn this in some pretty wet snow and warmer weather, as well as cold/ windy days and still stayed dry and at a comfortable temp

Durability Issues
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This jacket touts itself as being used for "backcountry skiing, ski mountaineering, freeride/powder skiing" On its 3rd trip to the resort, the jacket was placed on a chair in the lodge, and the sleeve got caught in the chairs seat. And ripped. I can't imagine that this is in anyway durable enough for "ski mountaineering", and i'm going to guess that rubbing on any type of rock will shred this thing. It's basically an overpriced resort jacket, that cannot handle any real type of exposure. If your looking for a resort jacket, you can find more affordable and durable options. And if you want a real "ski mountaineering" jacket, I would suggest staring clear of this jacket.

Bien fait et resistant
Il est facile de voir que de la recherche à été fait pour créer ce manteau. Je l'utilise principalement pour le touring/randonné et il répond à mes besoins.

Fantastic Protection
This shell shines as a outer layer in really crummy conditions. I don't use it every day, but when I do, I'm glad I have it on. The DWR seems to be very durable too, which is nice as that's usually the first thing to go. This probably wouldn't be my one and only shell jacket, but when I'm heading into the mountains and want piece of mind that I'll be fully protected, this bomber piece is a fantastic choice.

Used thus far for XC and downhill skiing in temps from 20 to -20 F. Happy with quality of wrist closures, and well made waterproof zippers on the front and for the vents. Waterproof zipper a little stiff, but that just makes it feel more secure. Appreciate the two chest pockets, which remain accessible in a harness.
