Oh man I love this jacket. Asthetically it fits all the boxes, the blue is so beautiful. As far as technicality goes, it's very waterproof (goretex working yay), and very warm. I love the fit. I sized up to have a more baggy fit, as I snowboard and generally run a Lil cold so like to layer. I'm normally a size L but got an XL.

Solid Jacket for Resort Skiing

1 year ago

This jacket pairs well with resort skiing. The light insulation still allows for warmth and layering in a variety of conditions up to about 30 degrees. After that, it may be too hot and a shell would be preferred instad. The waterproofing is relatively good and has kept me dry on a dreaded rainy slope day. What could be improved is the number of zippered pockets ie. one more on the front and a lift pass pocket on the sleeve would be nice. Minus a star for lacking a could functional pockets.

So happy with this jacket! Perfect for skiing the PNW!

1 year ago

I was looking for a jacket that was warm, water proof, and a fun color - this checks all the boxes and more. I love the vents in the sleeves, the powder skirt, the inside pockets, and the hand warmers at the end of the sleeves. So happy with this choice and highly recommend it to all!

Waterproofing held up

1 year ago

Skied in this jacket from open to close in a constant torrent of PNW rain and ended the day completely dry. Having a hood that fits securely over my helmet was also a game changer for a wet day. I love that the fit is a little looser to allow for layering. So far, so good!

Great lightly insulated jacket

1 year ago

Great for resort skiers and people who are more prone to be cold. Still allows for layering but with an added layer of insulation to ensure warmth
