Lowe Alpine Fuse Gore-Tex® Jacket - Waterproof (For Men)

This is actually the Lowe Alpine Fusion (not Fuse) jacket (tag on sleeve verifies this). This jacket is entirely Gore-Tex Pro Shell as the tagging and stiching in the arm state. I personally contacted Gore-Tex in the US and Lowe Alpine in the UK to confirm this. Lowe Alpine clothes are not sold in the US anymore since they are owned by the Italian company Asolo. I ordered a size M jacket which measured almost identical in size to other Lowe jackets (Treklite, Crescent) that are size S. The M weighs only 17.6 oz on my scale. The pit zips are on the triceps; two large chest pockets, no inner pocket. My jacket is 30.5" long in the back, 23" wide at the pits, 21.5" wide in the middle, and 22" wide at the bottom; sleeves are 26" long. Again, other Lowe jackets I tried in size S had the same measurements. There is plenty of room for layering and for a helmet, but the hood cinches down easy. Overall quality and detail is top-end. Excellent Velcro storm flap on front zipper and on sleeves. Very good shell for all-season use on or off the mountain and my first choice of shells.

This is in fact the Lowe Alpine Fusion GTX Jacket. It is made with Gore-Tex Pro Shell. I live in a temperate rain forest and this jacket has served me very well in the week I've owned it. I am pleased with the fit except for the size of the sleeves. They seem to be a bit big although I would rather have sleeves that are too big (allowing plenty of room for layering) in an outer shell like this than too snug. The overall fit and finish of this jacket are top notch. I would buy again. Highly recommended. 9 out of 10.

Great Jacket. I'm around 5'11'' 175 and the jacket fits great as a Medium. I can fit a mid-layer under it and I still have great range of motion. Wore it yesterday for the first time and got lots of complements. Can't wait to try it out on the slopes.

looking forward to using this gortex

Got the jacket, and it fits great. I have a long torso and monkey-arms, but this fits and doesn't ride up. I have only used it a couple of times, but it truly does seem to be waterproof.
