[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid backcountry skier I have used a lot of different shells. The fit is true to size, the soft shell fabric is durable but also breathable and the internal glove pockets are great for quick transitions without having to remove your backpack. I have not been able to use the jacket yet in snow, but have tested it in a light rain and it whicker water effectively. I would recommend this to anyone who needs a effective jacket for ski touring that is sick of bringing a larger, bulky shell with them. Black Diamond gave me this free product to try. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
Stretch + Water Repelling
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What stood out immediately to me about this jacket was the amount of stretch in the fabric. I can’t wait to combine it withh the bibs because the whole kit is going to play super well with the amount of stretch that I’m seeing in the jacket. Usually when you have this much stretch it introduces water repellency issues not the case with this fabric the water just beads right off as if it’s a hard shell. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
Finally a L that fits!
I am 6’2” 195# and always between a L and XL. Well, this is a proper L I tell you! I can move like an athlete in this jacket as it should be. Good versatile weight, I don’t overheat in it and I get quite a bit of wind protection. This winter out the door with this on and a light gore layer on top. If you are on the move this layer will make you smile
Perfect fit-- better than hardshell for wet snow.
Superbe soft shell jacket. The cut is just right: not too voluminous! Also relatively light weight. I ski Sierra resorts and backcountry-- we get wet snow. This jacket replaces my hard shell jackets most of the time, even when it's wet. It's not as warm as gore-tex, etc. , but that's why I prefer it most of the time.
Nice she’ll for shoulder season MTBing and backcountry skinning.
This shell does the trick. Works well while mountain biking on a colder day or on the skin track. Love the oversized hood as well. Fits helmets nicely. Would buy again!
Strange fit
Material and design are 5 star. Sleeves are way too long for me and the torso length is way too short.
Awesome jacket
Fits really well beads off worker great and breaths excellent
A Solid and Versatile Jacket with nice Features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BD Recon Stretch Ski Shell is a great all-around jacket with a robust build quality and thoughtful features that add to its versatility. The jacket is heavier than some others, but that adds to its durability and gives me confidence that it's built to last. The boxier fit allows for a generous amount of layering. Feature-wise, I love the seam-sealed pit zips, the ski pass pocket on the forearm, and the two big drop pockets on the inside. My favorite feature is definitely the removable powder skirt, which is a big part of what makes this jacket so versatile. It zips on at the bottom and stays fairly secure in use. My only real gripe about the jacket is the main pockets. They sit lower than I’d prefer (I like higher pockets to rest my arms more comfortably), and the design opts for storm flaps instead of seam-sealed zippers, which I would prefer to have in order to keep my phone and wallet dry. All together, the Recon Stretch Ski Shell is a feature-rich jacket with far more upside than downside, and given its build quality, thoughtful design, and versatility, it punches well above its weight—especially at a price point that undercuts many comparable options on the market. I’m excited to get out on the slopes this winter and put it through its paces. I did receive this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
