Santa Claus purchased this jacket for my 5 year old son who is skiing on the expert slopes here on the East coast slopes of WVa and NC. No they are not easy, he is just good!
There is much to be said about this jacket for warmth, waterproofness, looks, and coolness. My son's jacket is the envy of all the skiers in our area. I have not seen this jacket at all this year on another skier and that makes my son even more sure that Santa picked it out just for him. I love all the extra little zipper pouches and warmth extras such as the inner snap waist, pull ties and velcro sleeves. On warmer days he can leave his jacket open and ski without the worry of the jacket coming down off his shoulders. I just cant say enough about how wonderful the jacket is and Back Country shipped it right out. I bought this jacket about 2 sizes too big, but with all the velcro and extra waist tightners etc. It doesnt look too big at all, and my son will be able to grow into it for 2 more years at least. My next personal jacket will come from back country. Thanks you're great.
