Not What I Thought It Was. Shirts Too Big

Not what I thought it was. It is too loud and doesn't cover me well.

Happy

Nice color, appears to be pretty durable and sits nicely! Will be using a lot during this ski season and hiking!

Revised Version Is Awful.

Awful. The new revised version is terrible. The collar is SO stiff and cumbersome, especially if you have a hoodie on underneath. Be prepared to feel like you’re wearing a neck brace. The fit has also changed, my previous version of the beta ar was perfect, this one pulls on the shoulders and the sleeves are shorter. Very uncomfortable overall which is shocking for a shell. Will absolutely be returning. Bring back to older version.

Versatile Shell

The length (torso and pit zips) is great and the zip up area around the neck is very well thought out. I would wear a small in a freeride normal freeride jacket and sized up to M for layering. So far the jacket has held up well to cold wind, seems like the perfect versatile shell.

Excellent Communication

Excellent service and communication. I have not tried the coat in wet weather yet…It is -20° F in Alaska… ski time! Thanks for great work and follow through. Mary
