Burton Tronic Jacket - Men's - 2010

First, be aware this is really a technical shell, not an insulated jacket. If you want to wear it in adverse elements, layer up underneath. Even for a shell, it feels very lightweight so this would probably be an awesome spring jacket.

The Dryride Durashell is rated 20k mm and 15k g/mm^2 and feels very waterproof. This would probably keep you dry in any environment.

Ultimately, I ended up sending it back simply because the fit. It's Burton SigFit. I am 5'7" 140lbs and the small was waaay too small. I'd size up to at least M or maybe L to get that loose fit steeze. Be aware of this and try one on before you order or size up at least 1 from your normal jacket if you buy from typically loose fitting brands (Special Blend, Nomis or 686).

Otherwise, seems like a quality jacket.

I bought my Tronic since my old Burton jacket was out of date in every way. I took is out on the slopes and the results were exactly as expected. It performed will in keeping me warm, it kept out the snow when purposefully sliding down a hill, and the functionality was superb.

The only faulty feature (which can easily just be pushed aside) are the thumb loops. They are very rigid, and although my arms are not too long for the sleeve, when I put my thumb through the loop, my arms become limited, and feel uncomfortable. Even with that problem, for the price, I couldn't ask for a better jacket.

This Jacket is loaded with features!

Some of my favorite features include the POW grip to keep snow out by your gloves... and of course the collar exhaust that allows you to blow heat out up towards your mouth without fogging your goggles; If you have been there you know what I'm preachin'.

Its made of a ripstop fabric in Burton's signature fit silhouette.

The jacket has a lining similar to idiom ones (really high-end feeling) and removable waist gaiter! The plaid color is so sick!... but they are all pretty bangger!
