I used this coat on several 21 day winter expeditions in the Cascade mountains of Oregon. It is great in snow and sleet, plus it blocks the wind well. I found if I was movin…

I bought this jacket 1 yr+ ago as both an all-around jacket and top of the line for my purposes-it has exceeded my expectations. A fashionable rain jacket to wear to work, tru…

I purchased this jacket last year for my wife and she has never looked back. The style, warmth, and general bombproofness (yes, that is a word) of this jacket has made her so…

Let's just say this rocks. Most importantly, the hood fits OVER MY DREADS, zips all the way, and the brim covers my hairline, which has been a real problem for me with othe…

I bought this looking for a lighter weight winter jacket since I recently moved to Arkansas from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and winter just doesn't bite the same here.…
