Alpha 3.0 Jacket - Men's

USED JACKET

I paid for a new jacket. They sent me a used jacket. No tags and it had used clothing in one of the pockets. Terrible.

Brilliant!

Just got back from a 3 day snowboarding trip and this jacket was perfect. I loved the yellow/Cloudberry color, as I was really visible on the mountain. The numerous pockets were perfect for selfie sticks, 8oz water bottle, keys, etc. When I first bought it, I put part of the jacket in the shower and all the water shed off… I do know the coating wears off over time. With a wool shirt and thick fleece, I stayed warm at -35F wind chill temperatures. The pit zips were awesome for when it warmed up.

Great cut

Really like the way the jacket fit. Nice bit if insulation, I wore a light fleece underneath and I was sweating.

Not waterproof

I've put it through the wringer

It's too bad, because it's a nice jacket and it keeps you warm, but the first time I wore it inclement weather I got soaked. I was on the mountain skiing in seriously snowy conditions for two days in a row, and after the first half of day one it was soaked through. I thought I must have left pockets open while it was hanging in the lodge, but then it happened the second day, after I made sure everything was sealed tight. As an experiment I put the jacket over my sink with everything zipped up, poured water over and it leaked through the vents and the pockets. Major disappointment. Not sure if mine was flawed or the jacket just doesn't work as advertised, but either way I would not recommend buying this. Thanks to BC for covering it under the warranty though.

Great Jacket

Got this coat February 2021, used it now 5 ski days. I love it so far. I am in between size L and XL at 5'9" 200lbs. Went with the XL but the L fit well with one base layer. With such an expensive jacket I wanted room to layer up or in case I gain weight. Perfectly warm on a zero degree day. Vent zippers work when I got hot at the bottom lift line. I have been front groomers, tree ski days, and backside ski days. So far no issues with durability. Even took a hard fall on ice, complete yard sale, slid down a 100ft of ice. No rips.

This jacket was a huge disappointement. The HH fabric just doesn't hold up. The jacket deforms and wrinkles like a prune on the seams. Returned it. Fortunately, Backcountry has top notch customer service.

Awesome coat, super warm.

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Just got this and was immediately blown away by the quality and warmth. I?m 5?9, 174 pounds with a 32 inch waist and I ordered a large, the fit was perfect. Plenty of room for a tshirt and mid weight fleece. I was nervous about the removable hood since I live in a really windy state but I just went outside to test it, and it won?t be a problem. Anyway, 2 thumbs up!

Great Jacket - Small Torso Snug Fit

Familiarity:

I returned this product before using it

I loved everything about this jacket but had to return it because the torso was way too short for an XL. Definitely a snug fit but seemed like a great jacket otherwise.
