I am so impressed with this jacket! Not only is it warm, but with all the pockets, including specialized ones for tissues, chapstick and passes, as well as the angled main zipper so the zipper doesn't irritate your fade, this jacket is the best I've ever had. It's also very comfortable and had good flex and movement my first time taking it out. I am so impressed with the design. In fact, I bought the same jacket for my husband after he saw how sweet mine was and he loves it too. It kept us warm in the cold Canadian rockies already!
LOVE this jacket so much! It’s absolutely perfect, 686 hit it out of the park with this one. It’s perfectly waterproof and the thermograph inside keeps you just the right amount of warm. I was a bit concerned that it wasn’t going to be warm enough for our snowboarding trip in Japan but it absolutely exceeded expectations. I wore a base layer and a melanzana underneath and it was wonderful. I would definitely recommend sizing up for a baggier better looking fit!
I thought it was beautiful, but my wife wanted something lighter in weight. So, I reluctantly returned the jacket, wishing that she had given me better information before I ordered it. I am sure that someone else will agree with my assessment that it is a great cold weather jacket, even though it did not fit my wife's requirements.
I got an xl I’m 5’10 and have freakishly long arms, plus I prefer baggy. It’s not too baggy. I don’t look like I’m wearing my 6’2 bfs jacket, so there’s that.
