Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.

Sizing advice.The jacket is extremely waterproof. Love it.
But I do want to mention the sizing issue I had.
These jackets run "slim". That is to say, they are cut for use in rock climbing.
According to the size chart, I would be a "medium" at 5' 11" and 34 waist.
But I am a hiker and not a climber, so the "large" was the better size for me. I can easily wear a base layer, a midweight fleece, and my down puffer coat inside a large but that was restrictive in the medium. The arms are intentionally long because you need to be able to extend your arms when climbing so the velcro at the wrist can help to bunch up the arms a bit. Just my 2 cents.

Packable protection from rain sleet snow and windI recently purchased this shell for trip to Rockies. Performed well in wind and sleet and rain. Was very breathable. It does not pack into its pocket but rolls up small into its hood for convenient storage. Hood cinches nicely around the head to prevent cider female falling over your eyes .

Great Companion to the BD First Light Hybrid HoodyLast fall I bought the Black Diamond First Light Hybrid Hoody (from Moosejaw) as a new replacement for my backcountry travels (mainly skiing) softshell jacket. But, I did not have a companion hard shell for wet weather out here in the Pac NW. Well, The Helio Active is now that shell, bombproof, and compact enough to travel in my Black Diamond Cirque 22 ski pack, (also purchased from MJ last fall). The Helio is niced sized, layers over the FL hoody easily, both grey so as not to be too flashy out there. heh.. get one!

Excellent allround ultralight shellThis jacket is way underrated, maybe in part because Black Diamond sells is more like a specialized jacket for backcountry skiing. It’s really a super versatile ultralight shell for alpine pursuits, hiking, backpacking and XC skiing. I found it highly breathable & highly waterproof. The combo of Goretex Active with the C-knit backer works & feels great and dry to the skin. The workmanship is great. The DWR is as durable as it gets. You will be hard-pressed to find a jacket that is this light (just under 12 ounces for the medium) and yet is fully featured, with two generously-sized exterior pockets that stay above backpack hipbelts & harnesses, an interior slip-in pocket, two long armpit vents with two zippers each, adjustable cuffs, adjustable hood, adjustable hem – the latter two have one-handed cordlocks. And thanks to the outer fabric being very tightly woven, it is much more durable and less resistant to snagging than the denier count (30) would normally suggest. A tough competitor for the Arc’teryx Alpha & Beta FL jackets, at a much more reasonable price. A word on sizing: the only difference between the medium & the large are the chest & waist measurments - they have the same length. If you are up to about 6'3" & slim with long legs and shorter torso or up to about 6' & slim with normal build, the medium should fit you well. If you need more width, go with the large.
