Versatile
This jacket is well constructed... It is a pull-over and the side zips all the way up to the armpit to facilitate a snug fit and ease of donning and doffing. Once it's on you will feel like a snow ninja. This jacket is the slimmer Sig Fit, but I consider myself curvy and the small worked fine. I'm 5'4"/130 lbs and typically wear a 36C. I didn't feel squished in any way. The jacket is relatively thin, but with a Smartwool long sleeve, I was good to go on a cold day at Mt. Hood Oregon; cold here is 20 degrees and 20-30 mph wind gusts. I like it that the pant "gusset" zips on and off so you can ditch the extra bulk if you are not using the companion bottoms. I'm planning on wearing this baby on my rainy bike commute when it gets a little colder as it is super stylish, flattering, breathable, waterproof and warm. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was for a lack of MP3 compatibility and I find that surprising for a jacket of this "caliber" ($$) In fact, there is only one pocket and it is located on the abdomen slightly off center. I'm going to have my tailor sew a buttonhole in the inner side of the pocket so I can loop my headphone wire through, then this jacket will be perfect. I suppose Burton thought snow ninjas should be more aware of their surroundings...

Nicely made. Worth the extra money.
The jacket is very nicely made, with side zippers that let you put it on easily. The only gripe I have about this jacket is that I'm on the shorter side, so the arms are a little too long for me and it's definitely built for someone with a longer torso. If I went a size down, it'd probably be too tight around the waist.
