Fits true to size
Unlike many other ski shells, this one fits true to size. I am 6’2” and 190#. I ordered XL. Full shell fabric that is stretchy. Thin with no insulation.

Great for high tempo efforts
Breathes well to regulate temperature on uphill efforts, good protection on the downhill. Internal pockets keep skins warm and sticky. Very happy with purchase. Very functional piece of kit.

Perfect
