TNF - Done It Again!
12-03-05 ![]() |
This jacket is so hi tech I feel like I am wearing a spacesuit, and frankly I keep warm enough to be there. If I only had the 20 million it takes. I picture myself floating around the International Space Station with Valdimir the Cosmanaut saying 'zat iz a nize jakket'. I've been complimented time and again. The Free Climb will keep you nice and toasty whether it is a crisp autumn trail run, shoveling your driveway so your wife won't snip at you, or a nice spring day on the hill. |

Three for One

Dry, warm, and Hunter Safety approved. Burton rips whether it is cutting edge board tech, or keeping the powder out of your belly button. Unlike Microsoft, this system works flawlessly. If you need 3 jackets, get this One! |

Dry as a Bone

My wife and I do a lot of day hiking and she packs The North Face Flight Series & I have the Cohesion just in case the rain rolls in It is very light, and has kept me 100% dry, in moderate downpour It fits really good, I'm 5'7 200 and the Large fits great with regular base layer under. I agree with the other review the jacket is louder than the old corduroy pants I had when I was a kid, so if that bothers you this might not be what your looking for. For what I use it for I give the Cohesion 4 thumbs up, with a snap. |

Most Excellent

If you’re looking for a solid day pack this is a great choice. I thought the EVAP back panel and shoulder straps was a lame marketing ploy, but it really kept things cool. I had thought about a GoLite, but for an extra couple ounces I got the convenience of separate sections/pockets to be able to find what I needed quickly. The material showed its durability on a couple occasions that the trail got tight and I caught my pack on a tree limb. "it’s just a flesh wound" All in all I would recommend the Angstrom to any of my friends looking for a great daypack! |

Sick!

I got these pants in the dead of winter and 14F was no problem with the zip-in liner. Got back to the ride, dropped trow and rode home feeling like I should be lounging around mi casa. If there is one pant you should buy this year this is it! |

Looks Good Feels Good

I've been looking for a lightweight casual jacket that didn't suck. Oakley did it again, great attention to detail, feels like a million bucks, and for the price here is just a killer deal! I love this site! |

Nice

My wife got me this, I was concerned about the purple zag, not my color. Other than that it keeps my bald head warm. |

Fat people beware

I got these to replace my Burton Step Ins, and they are WAY harder to get in and out, but much better than sitting on the snow and strapping in, which with my gut is almost impossible. |

Hmmm...

When it works it works great. It seems to loose connection, so it cuts in and out sometimes. Style and fit is great, the audio could use some help. |

Dry Hands = Happy Kid

2.5 Years old and a tornado of energy. We got her these gloves and the Obermyer jumpsuit thing. Now sledding, skiing, snowshoeing, any adventure we can think of this kid is dialed. I give these two snaps with a twist. If you have a toddler, and want to keep them warm and dry these are the gloves to buy! They are worth every penny. |

Love It

I have had this jacket through the fall and now in to the winter. I agree with the other reviews. I have a TNF APEX Free climb and this jacket has been right on as far as comfort, wear. Very Impressed. The one and only gripe is the weird pocket on the sleeve...that was untill last week at PCMR, I had a 'fast pass' and put it right in that pocket (was using jacket as a layer under my shell) and was able to scan right through. Great job BC. You have my business for a long time. OH YEA - IT RUNS SMALLish |
