Not what I expected, returned the item By Ari from Central New Jersey on 10/30/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Waterproof, Wind Resistant Describe Yourself: Advanced Chest Size: Feels true to size Gear Usage: Hiking not skiing Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I am an avid hiker and skiier. I bought this item thinking I would be wearing it on the slopes. From the reviews I read, the item appeared warm for the snowy, cold winter slopes. However, when the item arrived, I realized it was too light of a jacket and wouldn't keep me warm. It was just a shell, not really a heavy winter ski jacket. I would recommend this item more for hiking, not for extreme winter sports.
By Giving up hope from Front Range, CO on 10/20/2009 Pros: Breathable, Durable, Stylish, Warm, Waterproof Cons: Bulky, Not Enough Pockets or Features Best Uses: Backcountry, Downhill Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I've been trying to replace an old goretex shell, but being petite and a few pounds overweight makes it terribly difficult to find something that will fit. This jacket was enormous, and the previous purchase (a Marmot shell) wouldn't zip up over my hips (too tight). I'm giving up and will have to go to a retail outlet. These jackets are never made for the short person so I'll be looking in the boys and girls size 16-18 (XL).
Can't wait to wear it on the slopes!

Soft lightweight and good looking By Frequent Shopper from East Coast Florida on 08/01/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Stylish, Waterproof, Wind Resistant Best Uses: Casual Wear, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased two of these jackets after spending a long time researching- We plan to use them for an end of summer Alaskan cruise and gore-tex came highly recommended. The inside pockets will come in handy since on the excursions they do not allow you to carry bags. The sleves are long but I like it that way.
Great looking AND great fitting By Jen from Anchorage, AK on 07/09/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Waterproof Best Uses: Backcountry, Hiking, Skiing Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is exactly the gore-tex shell I've been searching for! I like the color, the fit, and the features. It's perfect over a fleece for extra warmth. I've worn it halibut fishing, hiking, and rafting and it performed really well in all situations.
By Dani B. from Tucson, AZ on 04/21/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Stylish, Warm, Waterproof Cons: The hat does not roll up Best Uses: Backcountry, Casual Wear Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels too small Gear Usage: Alaska Vacation, Camping in the Mountains Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Wanted a lightweight but warm waterproof jacket for our excursions in Alaska. And I wanted it to look stylish enough to wear anytime, not just while hiking and camping. And I like to look like a girl, not a girl in her husband's jacket.
By smiles from Oshkosh WI on 04/01/2009 Pros: Breathable, Durable, Lightweight, Stylish, Waterproof, Wind Resistant Best Uses: Backcountry, Casual Wear Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I don't down hill ski, but do a lot of cross country as well as camping in all types of weather. I wanted something a little more versitile. I also find in a good down pour a shell will still let the water in. I wanted gortex and a jacket that had the pockets and adjustments needed to keep the rain out. Oh and something stylish! It's Perfect!

Wish I would have had the Marmot there!! Have worn it almost every day since I got it a week and 1/2 ago. Lastest great day=skiing at Winter Park, CO in the sunshine, yet windy. Kept me warm, yet not too warm. Pit zips great too.
