Great jacket. Terrible front zipper.

Written on Apr 02, 2021

I love everything about this jacket except the zipper. It’s fits me perfectly, and the quality is top notch. However, the left handed zipper is problematic. It could be because it is left-handed, and I am not accustomed to that. That said, it is not smooth and I have to consciously look down to make sure that it is in place before I pull it up.

This jacket was purchased for active, outdoor activities, primarily snowshoeing. I usually am between an XL and L, and this jacket seems true to size. I am 6’ 200# with an athletic build and purchased the XL for layering beneath. We snowshoed yesterday, 1-10-21, above Baker City, OR at 7600 ft in 25 degree weather. I was wearing a t shirt only. The jacket performed perfectly. I was never cold ( didn’t expect to be) and never too hot ( I was worried about this). I felt as though the jacket provided plenty of freedom of movement, and it was light as well. However, if this jacket was designed for these types of activities, I might recommend pit zips. The back of my jacket was wet from sweat, and I think this could’ve been mitigated with those. Other than that, I am very pleased with my purchase.
