Great jacket

"First of all, it's best to think of this as getting a really nice fleece and a nice shell. It doesn't really make any sense to zip them together, and you lose some functionality when you do (for example, the inside pocket in the shell becomes inaccessible when you zip the fleece in.)

"What makes this an outstanding jacket is the shell. The liner is good quality fleece which could use a better anchoring system where the sleeve cuff attaches to the shell cuff.

The wind and waterproof shell make this a very warm jacket when the liner is attached. An excellent buy! "

"The liner zips into this great jacket. Our son is growing like a weed but with the low price we can afford to keep him outfitted in quality Columbia gear and not fret the growth spurts to come. This jacket with see plenty of time on the slopes as well as casual wear. Thanks Sierra Trading Post. "
