"High quality waterproof jacket with a nice fit - 5ft11, 150lb, M fits me perfectly. Very large hood able to accommodate climbing helmet."
"Works as a great rain coat, but it’s so much more. Do everything mountain shell without unnecessary extras. Highly waterproof, highly breathable, semipackable, all mountain shell. Can be used as a ski mountaineering shell, or in bounds, as well as a cold weather hiking shell. Extremely versatile. 6’1” 175#, Medium fits with room for appropriate layers. Good to about freezing for low output with a light puffer and base layer, and well below freezing for high output activities."
"I bought a size small and it weighs 15.1 ounce vs 12.7 on the site. On the fit, it is cut oversized - very long length in body and sleeves. I bought small (normally medium) because of this and it was still a bit long for me but a bit too tight on the waist and shoulders for me to make usable. So I would need to get medium but would be swimming in it."
"Used this in multiple trail running races the last few weeks in Colorado! Stayed dry and warm. Looking forward to test it out during the winter"
"Stay away from this product. The water proofing is not working after 2-3 years, even if you reapply Durable Water Repellent (DWR) like Nikwax. I have contacted the support, and they told me it's normal, and won't do anything about it."
"Great jacket, really well made and the materials are high end. I'm 5'8" 155lbs and i got a medium. The small might fit me. The medium is incredibly long and while this might provide more coverage, I'm not certain the extra length is necessary. worn with a harness one can manage the extra by using the draw string and it works well."
"Good build quality and features. Kept my dry, but the fabric appeared to wet-out in a couple spots in the first few uses."
"Took this up some mountains, works well for a hard shell when below freezing. Breathable zippers under the arms is continent when on the hot descend"
"I’m 70 inches, 185, wide shoulders and a large fits great. BD put some thought into making this harness compatible with high pockets and a long torso. Super lightweight with a tiny bit of stretch. Nice adjustable hood. Tightly sealed zippers and generous pit zips. Everything seems dialed and doesn’t look like it will flake apart like the previous generation of shells. Bright colors are a plus."
"Their shells fit really well -- notably they are long enough in the body, which is key for a taller person. Great weight, too -- light enough to not be a burden, yet thick enough to be a real cold weather shell."
