| Pufflebrush | Untitled Review | | Voted 4/5 | Fine jacket. Quite tough considering how supple the fabric is. My Liquid Steel jacket held up very well considering the near constant use it has seen this winter . This is a great backcountry ski jacket and is great for mountaineering. Performed very well when I was on Cotapoxi last november.
Has a pretty good hood that is easy to use, and is easy to adjust-- though despite what Marmot says the hood will not fit over a climbing helmet. The jacket needs mesh backed front pockets to help compensate for the relatively short pit zips.
Overall this is a great jacket- very comparable to Arc'teryx jackets. | | Posted Apr 21, 2003 10:12 am |

Voted 4/5 | I got this jacket for a reallys good price (120 euros) as i am jobbing in a outdoor job. I used it for mountaineering, trekking (sometimes with a heavy bag), iceclimbing, skiing & snowboarding.
I like it, because its really lightweight & fits very good on my body. It packs away easily and also its realy very breathable.
One big minus: after 3-year use its now getting holes in the outer shell at the critical points (climbing harness, Backpack straps).
But good enough for that price. next time i buy something made of stronger material... | | Posted Jan 17, 2006 2:17 pm |
