Do it

Great 3L shell w/ modern fit. 5'7", 160#, went with Small. Fits perfect, though if I was any bigger it would be tight. Also brought in medium but that was slightly baggy, though length was still OK.

Technically sound and sharp look

Great jacket that handles the elements, while still looking clean on the mountain. The fit, pockets, and pit zips make this my go to both in and out of bounds!

Wetted out on Day 3 of wear

Bought this jacket based on the awesome reviews and love most of its features, but after 2 days of wear skiing I wore it in the rain for 20min hike and it wetted out with zero beading evident. Will have to try and revive the DWR, but not what I expect from a brand new jacket

Perfect freeride jacket

Great jacket!! Material (eVent) is very breathable, I do a lot of hiking and it's so much more pleasant than heavier materials; doesn't get clamy, less loud, and still waterproof enough for a full day in a storm. Long cut keeps you protected on the chairlift andnand thumb loops keep the shell sealed to your gloves. Pockets are numerous, large, and well thought out. Chest pockets are large enough for skins, heavy duty mittens, nalgenes/tallboys, anything you'd need to bring. Hood will cover a helmet but smal enough to not block peripheral vision. Cut is perfect, roomy without being overly baggy and in the way. Over 6 seasons and going strong. I would 100% buy this jacket again.

Highly recommended

Such a great jacket, I wanted to come back and give an update. Again, this jacket fits great (fairly relaxed, L, 5’11” 190lbs, big shoulders). My partner has worn this jacket on the rainiest PNW day I have seen and stayed drier than any of us. He’s always warm on the super windy days too. Pit zips and breathability are great. No signs of the bushwhacking we did touring the other weekend either! It’s making me jealous enough that I might have to get myself one too!
