This replaces a much beloved Whirlibird that was lost. My only complaint is that I couldn't get the same color scheme as my original parka. The parka is well crafted with many features such as zippers under the armpits that make this a great parka for the serious skiier. Than ks.

very warm jacket
I just got this jacket and tested it outside at 20 degrees. It is very warm and very comfortable. I would highly recommend this jacket to my friend. It is worth the money to buy it because of the quality is nice and the material which Columbia is very soft and smooth. The jacket isn't heavy at all and it is kindda light weighted comparing to the jackets at the same class. I love it so much. I believe you have to check on the sizes because mine fit a little bit larger, and I believe I have to get a one size smaller.

Awesome Jacket
I think this jacket is one of the best designs I've ever seen. It was very difficult to find in stock, especially in the colors I would prefer. It was worth the wait. Its extremely warm, light, not puffy and keeps you dry. You can tell how good of a jacket it is when its sold out on a regular basis. I do recommend that you go a little larger than normal. The sizes tend to run a little on the small side, other than that everything else was well worth the money and then some. By the way, I had a great experience with Altrec as well. They were very helpful and had a great price.

Excellent Jacket
Excellent product overall design is great. Warmest jacket I have purchased and yet the design allows the jacket to not be bulky or heavy. Plenty of pocket storage. Color scheme is great.

Excellent coat
This coat is excellent. I've owned it for approximately 1 weeks and I have yet to find a flaw. The omni heat keeps me warm without making you hot and sweaty. Recently I walked to class in -5 degree wind chills and 20 mph winds and I was perfectly content. I highly reccomend buying this product.
