All purpose kind of like my Daytons

By Mister N-Dubby May 26, 2010

I live in Colorado and I can wear this coat everyday of the week from October through February. Its a great everyday rain/snow coat to wear to work and Its great on the hill. The elbows have an athletic cut to provide dexterity. Ask anyone, dexterity is paramount when you're ninja dropping off cliffs and schpinning off lips.

Water proofing and quality are great. The hood is a little funky but its not like it gives you a sausage neck whens its packed away. The coat is great but not worth retail. Buy it on sale. My North Face Apex Bionic windstopper sits at home and cries because I dumped it for my OR. :(
