Burton AK 2L LZ Gore-Tex Down Jacket - Men's

Item #BUR4926 | 7 in Stock
5 Star Rating

best jacket you'll ever buy

By Ranked #2652 - Men's Jackets December 5, 2009

This is hands down the most comfortable, best fitting piece of outerwear I've ever owned. Putting it on is like sliding into a down sleeping bag that weighs next to nothing. The fabric is Gore-tex so when it's time to shred balls-deep pow in 10 degree weather, you're dialed all day long. My favorite thing about this jacket besides the sick color (the sorcerer blue really pops!) and comfort is the perfect fit. I've had a hard time with Burton's inconsistent sizing over the past two seasons but they got it right this time. I'm about 5'10" and 160 lbs and a men's size small fits me perfectly - not too baggy, not too snug, with the length just long enough to cover the goods. This jacket is just one reason why Burton makes the best outerwear in snowboarding. you can't go wrong with AK.
