Great jacket, style and price !!! took this baby away with me on a recent trip to New Zealand where winter is starting ......I was very impressed with its wind resistance and water beading ability during a boat tour of doubtful sound and also skied with the uzi too. Also got a compliment on the chest access slot on the front right side :) real sharp detail all around.The Large ran big (Im 5'11" and 180lbs )and BC switched it out for me ASAP for the medium which is perfect.

Thanks to Backcountry for sending a smaller size to me (2 day express) for a trip to New Zealand to give the Uzi jacket a real outdoor test.I'm 5'11" 180lbs and found the large very big in the body and long in the arms. I'm on the slim side and the medium was a much better choice ,slimmer and not as roomy in the body but you can throw a layer or two undernear. This jacket has all the bells and whistles!! great color in gunmetal grey. I will be using it mostly as an outershell and rain jacket but would def recommend based on style ,options, price.....I only need to find out how well it breaths!!

First let me say backcountry is great ,maybe the best and price adjusted this one after is was marked down further.I have only had this one for about two weeks BUT the style is very sharp, not like your typical ski jacket. seems somewhat warm if you have addition layers underneath as well. I will test it out on the slopes soon. go for it or any of the other scapecoat jackets!!!
