If you don't have any desire to learn to ski, there is a fair chance that you don't want to wear a ski jacket--especially if the nearest ski resort is in another state or province. That might be why The North Face created their Gotham Jacket for men. It's a casual, urban-styled down jacket oriented toward urban and suburban winter adventures. The Men's Gotham Jacket features a waterproof and breathable HyVent-backed nylon dobby shell fabric with plenty of warm 550-fill goose down insulation. The torso coverage is longer than most ski and snowboard jackets, so you enjoy more warmth and weather protection while you're waiting at crosswalks or light rail stations. Because some guys might find the faux fur along the hood a bit too much on milder winter days, The North Face made the trim detachablestow it away and save it for another cold day in the city.

Good bit of kit
Very warm, well thought out pockets, tough and up for the job it was made for. Another North face hit.
A+
very warm and not heavy at all. it's not the lightest, but what would you expect to wear in winter time? the fur on the hood is detachable which is a plus. shipping took a couple of weeks, but it's the only place where i found an M size, and i'm very happy with it. i personally think its better than McMurdo, a definite investment for the cold winter days.
Awesome
This jacket is bulky (makes me look very big), but not as heavy as I thought it was going to be. The faux fur works really well to keep your face area warm. Plenty of pockets with cool logos. It's a must have for the winter.
