Cute Snowboarding Jacket!
I bought this for my teenage daughter that likes to snowboard. We chose the fuscia color which is really eye-catching. As she described it "it kind of looks like a sunset with the yellow fading to orange, and the orange fading to a pink color. It's the only one at her high school, so I don't have to worry about her accidentally grabbing the wrong coat after cheerleading practice. The fit is fine, she's 118 pounds, and we purchased a medium. It is roomy enough for her to wear a sweatshirt underneath. She has also worn it sledding, and it shed water off just fine. Great purchase!

Happy with the purchase.
I bought this jacket for my teenage daughter. The style and colors are great. It fits loose around the shoulders and chest, but a little tight in the hips. I think it will be perfect if she grows a little.

A compliment a day
I love this jacket, my boyfriend gave it to me as a gift and people compliment me on it all the time. I tend to run on the cool side, and for lift served skiing, I find it to have a nice, medium weight good to about twenty f with a midweight base layer and a thin fleece pullover. The pit zips come in handy when it gets warm and the wrist gaiters are great if you're into those things, I am. The fabric is soft and sheds water quite well. I like that is doesn't make all the noise that my hard-shell does. Plenty of pockets for my stuff and hands, and a nice microfleece chin guard too . Sizing seems to be good as a medium fit perfectly with enough room for layers and a few snacks in my pockets. The cut is for a woman and isn't boxy. It doesn't have that baggy look. The only issue is that the hood could be a bit bigger to better accommodate my helmet. Unless it's snowing hard or really, really cold, this is one of my favorite jackets, on and off the hill.
