Super Burly Jacket

This is an excellent resort jacket. Its super tough GORE TEX Pro shell will hold up to anything. After a couple years of slamming into branches and sliding over rocks there's not a rip or tear to show for it. The shell is really warm and still going strong in the waterproof area. My only complaint is that it doesn't pack down very small so its not my choice for backcountry days, but that's the price you pay for the durability. My brand new arcteryx ripped right away where this jacket would have held up to the rock I hit.
