Love This Jacket, I Get Compliments At Every Chair Lift

I was eyeing this jacket for a couple weeks and waiting for a sale and suddenly DSG had it for like $180 which is way cheaper than anywhere else I saw it so I grabbed it. The price went up like $100 the next day so I’m glad I grabbed it when I did. The fit is somewhat of a slimmer fit compared to most other snowboard jackets

Cool Jacket

One of the best jackets that i ever had the color is amazing

Hydra Jacket

Jacket is great. Does really well in snow and keeps you warm with just a base layer. Wish there were zippered pockets on the inside. Outside pockets are good. Also if you want to put your hood over your helmet you have to unzip the jacket a little to give it the room to go over. Overall great jacket.

Great Jacket

I wasn’t sure about the side zipper but it’s really nice. The grid fleece around the neck and chin is a huge plus! The only drawback to me is the sleeve length. I’m 6’0 228 so had to order an XL with my measurements. The sleeve length is really long for my arm length. Overall this is a top notch coat. Build quality is superb. Not quite warm enough on its own for the sub zero Minnesota temps I sometimes board in but my puffy is a perfect mid layer underneath it. Highly recommend!

Great Jacket

The quality of the jacket is great. i am super excited to try it out in March when I go back to Japan as I live in Hawaii and it isn't cold enough to use here.

3 Stars

Zipper has problems being smooth. Sleeves are way too big across all sizes.

Great Jacket

My boyfriend loved this jacket. The arm sleeves are especially appealing as they will prevent snow getting in.

Look Good, Feel Good. Stay Warm, Ride Amazing

Warm and good looking jacket. Really easy for layering as its versatile for multiple conditions. Im not in love with the chest pocket placement. Conceptually it makes sense and seems functional, but doesnt work for me. That being said, this is still an incredible resort jacket thatll still standout in the sidecountry

Great Value

I am 6-1 200 pounds, 44 chest, bought an XL and it fits well, lots of room for insulation. I am 66 years old so I’m not into that baggy look. The model shown in the picture has an XL on and he is substantially smaller than me.

Love The Color And Style

I usually wear a women’s small or medium and wanted to give this a shot since they don’t make all the same colorways for women. Loved the color and all of the little details but just too big. If these guys made more men’s coats in XS or carried all of their colorways over to women’s it would be an easy keep for me.

The Hood Is Too Small For The Size Of Jacket

The jacket size fits perfectly, but the hood is a little too small.

Overall Great Insulated Shell Jacket

Overall great insulated shell jacket for riding. Love the exterior pattern! Top left zip flap is kinda odd. Maybe the it should have been center to balance flap when riding w/ it unzipped?! Need a few more interior zip pockets as well. Overall, I would purchase it again and have enjoyed the comfort/ tech.

Checks The Boxes

I’ve been repping this brand since 2003, and it never disappoints. With proper layering, this jacket does exactly what it claims. Keeps the wind and water out, and breathes enough to keep your temp well regulated in the cold. It runs a bit on the larger side, but not a problem for me. Style and comfort for days!

So Sick. Pockets In All

So sick. Pockets in all the right spots and love the fleece chin protection for the powder days ahead. Get to the lose a layer with the built-in core insulation. I think this jacket will be my go-to this season for pow days.

Good Jacket

Ordered during Black Friday sale. Shipped quickly. Arrived without issues. Correct product shipped. Ordered large to accommodate mid layer(s). Would recommend doing the same if you plan to layer up. Would only recommend using this jacket as part of a layered strategy to stay warm. The lack of insulation in the sleeves will make all those who try (with the exception of the exceptionally warm blooded) popsicles in short order. That being said, even very bulky mid-layers fit underneath the jacket without feeling restricted. The lining around your mouth and in the hood is very nice on the skin. Really like the venting as I wear glasses and it is nice being able to see. The extra bits of fabric at the cuffs to help bridge the gap from jacket to gloves is very nice. Asymmetrical zipper is nice and saves your lips and nose some pain. Takes a bit of getting used to when zipping. Have not yet had a chance to test the powder skirt. Only sizing issue is sleeve length but that's probably just me having shorter arms than my Large size comrades. Love the look, love the color.
