A well fitting but fragile jacket. Unfortunately, the outer shell material is very thin/flimsy/fragile. A brush with a small tree left an entire arm panel ripped open (damage beyond the surface scratch). This was after only 3 days on the mtn. I have never owned another ski jacket that became damaged so easily. Once ripped, you can see the shell fabric is paper thin. This is a real bummer because the style and fit of the jacket is otherwise excellent. The collar is the best feature on this jacket. It stands up on its own when zipped up, rather than being floppy like some others. It cuts the wind and is just the right height. The hood is a bit small/tight over a helmet, but it seems to be a concession to not obstructing your side view which is a fair trade. The shell ... MoreA well fitting but fragile jacket.

The shell seems fully water and windproof for the few days I wore it. The jacket is a bit short for boarders bending down to strap in, but I had no issues when combined with bibs. The jacket itself is very warm. If you ski/ride only occasionally and run cold, this is an adequate choice. If you want a jacket to last many years, I'm not sure this is it.

A great ski jacket. Warm, comfortable and with all the advanced features that shout out quality. The small touches make all the difference. Sleeve glove ends, a cloth to clean your googles or sunnies. Waterproof and long length at back. Best jacket ever

Bought this jacket for Canada and it did not disappoint. The jacket has excellent insulation and is more than warm enough for the cold conditions of Whistler and Banff. The stitching and overall construction is very high quality, plus the jacket looks great! The jacket runs a little small, so I would recommend sizing up.

I hadn't bought a new ski jacket in a few years. I was looking for something stylish that would also perform. The jacket looks great - the navy blue with the red and white accents is super clean. I'm 5'4", around 150 pounds and wanted something a bit more tailored. I ordered a small and love the fit. It's loose enough that I can comfortably wear a base and mid layer, but it doesn't feel like I'm swimming in the jacket if I just want to wear a T-shirt. I haven't yet skied in the jacket, but I'm looking forward to testing it out on the slopes.
I agree with Justin Y. I bought the ‘22 version of the jacket. I wore it a few times during the winter of ‘22-‘23. Great fit, style and warmth. I wore it maybe 15-20 days during winter of ‘23. By the end of the season the stitching along the zippers was getting undone. Also had a rip in the shoulder without obvious contact with tree branches. I returned it. HH would not give me a new one as replacement because even though the jacket came fro Backcountry it was purchased through Amazon. I finished the season using my 16 year old Arcteryx sidewinder. If you truly want something that’s bulletproof, look no further than Arcteryx goretex shells.
Was looking for new hooded shell for lift-access skiing. Bought a bunch to try on at home with layers, pants, and helmet. Almost kept this one, but it was just a litttttle too thick. I prefer to layer up/down depending upon weather. Great helmet-sized hood, and love the left forearm lift pass pocket. I've had two shells in 30 years, and next one needs to be perfect. This and the Patagonia Untracked came close. Great shell but returned.
Nice jacket for snow sports with a lot of features. There are a lot of pockets (chest, sides, interior, skipass, etc). Wrist gaiters and powder skirt is good for warmth and keeping everything dry. I bought the navy and really like the colour and contrasting zipper colour. Sizing around the torso was just a little big for me but it's not a big issue because it allows for layering and range of motion.
I was a little hesitant to order this online because I appeared to be in between sizes. For the record, I'm 5'6, 160lbs with broad shoulders. I went with the L and it fit me nicely. I knew the sleeves were going to be too long (all my jackets are) but I don't mind that too much. If it's very cold outside and I forget my gloves, the longer sleeves are a bonus since I can completely cover my hands. The jacket is very warm yet breathable. As soon as I got it, I went for a long walk in -17C weather with just a thin fleece sweater underneath and I was completely comfortable.
Great fit, on the slim side. If you want room size up. It is very warm and easy to move in without being overly bulky. Pockets are awesome - placed perfectly and functional. I loved everything about this jacket but my waterproofing failed. Customer service from HH and MJ has been amazing. Both were quick to respond and they are standing behind their product. I’m exchanging now and turn around only took a day.
Great fit, definitely runs small. I am between a L or an XL at 6'1" between 200-210lbs. I ordered XL and it fits great, good fit and cut. Still enough space to add a fleece layer if needed when it gets cold. If I didn't want extra space and would only ever wear a base layer with no layering, a L probably would have been great for a form/slim fit.Color looks good and is as pictured.Jacket has all the features you could possibly want... wrist gaiters, wrist pocket for a pass, good zippers, good cut/fit, pow skirt, removable hood, pockets are well sized, etc.Just got it in October, so no winter experience.

Quality looks and feels solid. I have no reason to expect anything other than solid performance in the winter.
