Wow! What an incredible Jacket!! I rarely give out reviews, but seeing how I use them its my new resolution to give them out. And I must say this jacket is great! While I am not a snowboarder or skier. This coat is a great buy! I live in Michigan and we here know a thing or two about cold days. But so far its held up great on our 20 degree days, and our 34 degree wet and cold snow days tool! And recently I took it with me on vacation to California. During a cold snap, and was able to alternate the Fleece and the outer layer according to the temperature with no problem. This system is the bomb! Get it and you wont be disappointed!

Very Warm. The jacket came in a timely manner after my purchase. I wanted a warm jacket because I live in Michigan's Upper Peninsula where we receive nothing but cold wind and snow in the winter. So far this jacket keeps me almost too warm. I haven't broken it in yet but it seems to be well made and durable for the long haul. There is not much room for extra layers underneath the jacket, but all you will need is a good base layer and you'll be ready for some serious cold. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

Instantly became my favorite winter wear. The warmth is amazing as well as the fit, but after riding for probably 6 hours in nothing but rain this jacket earned my respect. Although I was soaked the jacked never really got saturated enough to penetrate through both layers keeping me warm and dry for the day. 10/10 would buy again, but based on the quality I don't think Ill have to.
Bought this to replace my inbound kit. It's made a few tour appearances as well. Fit is a bit boxier than I'm use to. It's been snowed and rained on and has kept me dry. I was really surprised at how warm the liner alone is. Fit on the liner is A+. Only downside of this set up: No one can find me when I'm in just the liner. #camogang
Instantly My New Favorite Jacket. I used this in whiteout and snowy conditions and it performs just like you would expect. Warm but didnt get to hot. Fits perfectly for my frame. 6ft 180 and i got the XL. I plan on taking this with me to Colorado this weekend as its probably gonna be the jacket i wear the most this season.

Needed some information on showpants. We ordered snow pants but they didn't fit great. Called back and talked to someone at 686 who gave me some really detailed fit information. I appreciated that and ordered a new pair of pants in a better size. Thx.
