Burton Men's AK 2L Cyclic Jacket

2 Layer Gore Tex Perfection
I am 6 feet tall and weigh 220 pounds and the XL fits perfectly. This jacket does the job from opening day until the end of the season. Don't let the lightweight feel of this jacket trick you. When it is cold and windy, layering with a moisture-wicking performance t-shirt and fleece will keep you warm. The powder skirt does a great job of keeping snow from going up your back. The hood is big enough to be worn over a helmut. This jacket stops the wind cold due to the fully tapred seams. Even the Zippers are water resistant. On warmer days, the pit zips ensure that you don't overheat. The style of this jacket is unmatched. This jacket can make the transition from the slopes to the streets.

Great Quality
This is a quality product. It does an amazing job blocking wind and keeping water out. But beware, make sure you're prepared with base layers because there is no insulation. I'm 6'2" and 195 lbs and the Large fits perfectly. The length is great and the sleeves are a perfect fit.

Great Gore-Tex shell
recently purchased from altrec.com for an outer layer GORE-TEX waterproof shell (lightweight) to wear over a down jacket (for warmth). This combination is exactly what I was looking for... the AK jacket will keep me dry on wet, slushy, rainy days on the slopes of MT HOOD, and wearing a down jacket underneath will keep me warm and toasty on the coldest of days.... -Hoodlum
