“I am a everyday casual guy during weekdays and Recreational/Avid sporty during weekends. Have been using this jacket for 1 year now and have to say that it full fills my expectations on both the cases - I have the shark/gray color one for a more laid back city use though. I wear this to my 9am to 6pm work and to my weekend snowboarding trips. I got the M size and the fit for my 6ft-185lb stance it's one of the best I've ever had. It's kinda on the tight side for me on the shoulders, but I workout at the gym so I do realize that. If you are any taller/heavier you may want to go to the next size up. Other than that I would say that it has a regular to snug fit, which is the one I like. If you have a large waist line, you may want to try it out first. Sleeves are perfect length and pre-curved for the everyday use but might give some problems if you raise our hands above horizontal position to the ground (choose some long gloves and tighten up the velcros at the sleeve ends and that you should be good to go). Length of jacked it's perfect as well with end of jacket sitting somewhere on the middle of the jeans back pockets. PROS: supertosty on temperatures, I just use 1 thermal synthetic layer underneath it and been comfty with it on temp down to the lower 10s while snowboarding; I've had lots of crashes on it and yet not a single tear; I especially like the fleece collar and hand pockets interior; the hood it's down filled as well; drawcords everywhere so you can tweak it up to your use/fit; lots of pockets. CONS: the under arm vents are not insulated on it so even when closed and you are on the mountain lift, you feel cold under your arms; the interior lower part of the jacket between the bottom end and the powder skirt it's not waterproof so when you crash on snow and the snow get's in there, the down insulation dampens a bit; the powder skirt itself should have been at least 2/3 inches lower; I find the zip kinda hard to go up and down and you have to bring your chin up in order to close the last 4" neck ride of it. Overall I am very happy with this jacket especially since it costed me [$] total[...]. I totally would recommend it and if it didn't have the "cons" above it would have been the PERFECT jacket. You won't be disappointed.”
