Perfect lightweight shell

This shell is super light and very waterproof. The style isn’t bulky but spacious enough to layer easily underneath when wearing true size. Not super thick so won’t add much warmth, but this is perfect for hiking or backpacking and will be a great addition to my ski gear as well.

Great buy

The jacket is so gorgeous and perfectly breathable for touring. Great pockets and pit zips. Just don’t get stuck in the rain and you’ll be fine.

Nice Fit and Zippers, Fabric Pills

For reference, I am 5'4" and 128 lbs, typical size small. I love the fit of this jacket, it's roomy enough for a puffy underneath and just baggy enough for a freeride inspired style, sleeve length is slightly long but great for me (I have a +2" ape index). I like the two front pockets for quick access, and the hood fits well over my ski helmet. My only issue is that the jacket's outer fabric on the back panel and shoulders pilled from use with my backcountry back pack, and thus did not remain waterproof.

Just ok

I find the zipper to be really annoying on the chin. Would be better if there was more room and could tuck face inside partially.

Great ski shell

I've always had insulated ski jackets so I was nervous about buying a ski shell. I've worn it twice now on the resort, once with and once without an insulated layer. It kept my adequately warm on the cooler days and cool and dry on those warm spring sking days. The arm pit vents are great! Very happy with it

Great coat, comfortable. Haven’t worn it yet in the elements but I think it will become a favorite. Colors are great, lime green & berry. Love this coat!!

Carbon Color not grey and burgundy!!!

Great jacket but very disappointed in misleading photo online of the color. Color online very clearly looks grey and burgundy on cuff and zippers. Actual product is all grey with black zippers, no burgundy anywhere! Too bad, was really excited for the grey and burgundy! Still a nice jacket but disappointed in the color.

Great jacket

I am really enjoying this jacket. I love the color. Tested it out and some wet snow. And it’s bombproof.
