Bottom Line: The Burton Women’s Guardian Down Jacket stands vigilant against cold.
I wore this jacket for 2 hours while skiing. Yes it is extremely warm, but gets really dirty just standing around. Yes, it is white and can be expected to get a bit dirty, but even under the arms was filthy. Nothing was under my arms during those hours. I think the fabric, soft...attracts every dust particle around. It's unfortunfate, pretty cool jacket, if you don't mind having a white jacket that turns grey.
Belting jacket - was warm and cosy the whole ski trip. Looks best with white ski pants - was happy to don for Apres and on the slopes. Big fan, thanks for the pressie Chezzabell!
I bought the multicolored one and it has stayed perfectly clean so far. It is toasty warm, has room for 4 layers.
I am 5'4" 128 lbs and got the medium. I wish I had gotten the large because I like my jackets roomy. However
it looks great, does not look puffy like other down jackets, is not too short and I have gotten many compliments on the mountain. I did remove the fur trim from the hood. I like it so much I have ordered two more Burton Jackets (different styles & colors)and I am eagerly awaiting their arrival
