At least it's toasty.

By Ranked #1810 - Women's Snowboard Jackets December 3, 2007

I like this jacket's material and have been warm on some of the colder days in Colorado so far. I like the look and the style of the jacket too.
The Con:
One major one, which has annoyed me starting day one, is the cuffs. They aren't wide enough, and I don't like the pull closure on them. Before this jacket I had the Volcom Nimbus, which had super long sleeves with a really wide cuff and a really long pull tab. It was great. But with the Opus every time I have to put on my gloves it's a battle getting the glove cuff into the jacket sleeve. I even tried to ride with my spring gloves and had the same problem. Bummer.
