Super sick jacket, 686 makes top quality stuff! 01-30-09
Just received mine, haven't taken it snowboarding yet, but wanted to comment on a few things. Design is wicked if you don't mind turning some heads in the lift line. I just bought some fatigue green pants and they look real fresh with the grey jacket, even though it looks mostly blue in the pics. And if you've never had a 686 jacket before, you have no idea how well constructed they are- it's obvious they're a snowboarding company with gear made for, and by, snowboarders. Tons of little design details, everything is super functional, and the jacket has this super comfy brushed/soft feel to it. You need this!
This jacket is sick. It doesn't just say "waterproof," it is actually waterproof. We were stuck on a broken down lift for 2 hours in drizzel and I was not only dry but warm. 686 makes sick clothes. The removable liners are a good option for those warm days. Tons of pockets for all your goods... This jacket rocks
This jacket has more pockets than should be allowed on one item. You can stash whatever you need for the ride in its own place and still have room for mom's chocolate chip cookies. The coat is super warm and can be adjusted for any range of temperatures. So, go for it! You deserve it.
