Manteau de ski chaud et respirant homme – FR 500

Jacket size XL - 6 feet 195 pds - fits perfect with room to layer. Wearing with one base layer and one mid layer. Can add at least one insulation layer if/when needed. Pros: - Hard-shell waterproofness seems to work really well (tested in snow storm not rain). La coquille se

mble tres resistante a l'eau (testee en tempete de neige, pas de pluie). - Very breathable / Tres respirante. Big plus: the underarm zips are very long and really help to evacuate heat. Les ouvertures sous les bras sont grands et permettent une tres bonne evacuationd ela chaleur. - Isolation: I was skeptical about the isolation pads vs a pure-bred shell, but since I use this jacket in winter only, it works wonder and add well needed warmth in Quebec weather while still being very breathable. Les pieces d'isolation sont vraiment bien, permettent d'etre plus au chaud pendant les hivers Quebecois, tout en restant tres respirant. - The cut of the jacket is great (longer than typical - does not restrict movement) and I love the double sided zip. La coupe est longue et ample et la fermeture a glissiere double sens est tres pratique. Cons: - Not a con, but like all Decathlon product, it has European sizing so pick 1 size up. - The outside chest pocket zip closure should be reversed (more practical). So closing going down not up. But this is a detail Conclusion: Amazing jacket, could not be more happy! And the price is just a fraction of the competition. PS: I wear this jacket as an outer layer, with the 900 Freeride Ski Down Jacket (XL) as a mid layer and the 900 Merino Wool Ski Base Layer and this is hands down the BEST combination for downhill skiing I have ever worn - I am finally dry AND warm (disclaimer: I ski mainly in glades, bumps, and/or powder when I can find it, hence sweating a fair amount during the downhill part.) PS: Skiing so far has been done in -2 to -13 degrees Celsius. Will try and update after this weekend (forecast -30 degree).

The material used and the construction of the jacket are top notch. I couldn’t find a single loose thread. The taping of the seams was done exceptionally well, and it is neat and thorough. The external seams are very smooth, which helps water to run off without catching. I

placed the jacket under a running tap and the water beads off like it were a glass surface. Size M fits my 5’10”, 70kg flat body. The jacket fits tailored from shoulder to hip. I can still wear a fleece top underneath and have sufficient movement, but it does hug me. This jacket is designed long in the body and arms. I’d imagine this would fit perfectly for someone 6 feet and slender. The jacket hem, which hugs my hips, sits well below my finger tips while my arms are relaxed at my side. My primary concern is that when I sit down (on the chair lift) my hips open up and put pressure on the hem and main zipper. Essentially, the jacket hem has to slide up my hips to allow my hip to open up naturally to take a sitting position. The rear of the jacket is so long that part of it remains slightly under my bum. I suggest the jacket length should be an inch or two shorter or increase the bottom width by an inch. The sleeves are probably 2-3 inches too long. Ski jacket sleeves do need to be longer, but this is still at least 2 inches too long, leaving excess material scrunched up in the forearm and elbow area. Otherwise, they articulate well at the elbow. The hood is large and easily fits over a helmet as it is designed to do. However, that makes the hood uselessly large for use without a helmet, despite the ability to cinch it. The brim of the hood falls to the nose, covering your eyes. The inside snow skirt continues the well-fitted theme. If you have a belly, you can forget about using this. I wear 30-31” waist pants and this skirt is tight. The zippered air vents under the pit area are set slightly too far back, requiring a little stretch to reach. They can be zippered down from the biceps or up from your ribs. If you zip up beyond the middle point (your pits) they are nearly impossible to zip back as the material is too supple to support the zipper movement. The mesh goggle pocket inside should be bigger but will still do its job. It has great waterproofness, includes the Recco security patch, uses YKK zips and is constructed to excellent standards. Overall, an excellent quality jacket at a decent price. You will love it if you are tall and slender; avoid if you’re not.

I really wanted to like this jacket--it seemed well designed, well build and well priced. I am 5'8" and 150lbs and the jacket fit well in the body with just enough room to layer. When I got it home I tried it on again and realized the sleeves were way too long the sleeve ext

ended past the end of my fingers (in the store I had them velcroed up)--way too much extra fabric. I know you need at little extra sleeve length for skiing but this was way too much. Ended up returning the jacket. Oddly, the small size sleeves were a good length but the small was way too snug in the body.

All the tech features of a high end jacket without the high price!

super content avec ce manteau

3eme jour de ski : je viens de passer une toute petite apm de ski sous une fine neige à accompagner les enfants sur les pistes vertes.. 2 téléski.. 2 télésiège.. 2 toutes petites heures, et j'ai les épaules trempées !! c'est pas du goretex ok, mais 170 € pour ça ??!! je voi

s mal comment passer une journée complète sous la neige sur une rando par exemple !! ma veste aurait aurait-elle un défaut ?!

J'ai utilisé le manteau 4 jours au total soit 2 jours l'année dernière et 2 jours cette année pour le ski. J'ai effectué un lavage à 30° comme indiqué sur l'étiquette, je ne sais pas si à cause de ce dernier mais en voulant le refermer pour le ranger, la fermeture ne fonctionn

ait plus. Qualité plus que douteuse. Sinon le manteau fonctionnait relativement bien (on ressent le froid lorsqu'il y a du vent ou des températures très basses) et n'était pas trop onéreux.

Pour toujours avoir eu très chaud très rapidement au ski sous toute météo, j'ai enfin trouvé une veste répondant parfaitement à mes besoins. Très respirante, sous grand soleil sans 2ème couche j'ai été très à l'aise (possibilité d'aérer sous les bras). Sous la tempête avec un

e polaire j'ai été parfaitement au sec, avec possibilité de remonter le zipper jusqu'en haut et parfaitement isoler le visage sous le masque. Très bonne coupe

J'ai acheté ce manteau de ski que j'ai porté avec moi en Finlande en Laponie l'hiver dernier. Je suis guide motoneige. Je l'utilisais pour le ski, la randonnée enn raquette de neige et parfois en motoneige. Veste au top. J'ai pris du M alors que je porte normalement du M pour

avoir de l'espace pour l'air qui isole et rajouter une deuxième polaire ou pull s'il fait trop froid. Testé avec 2 polaires decathlon Forclaz. En Laponie c'est du froid sec. OK jusqu'à -20°C au delà je recommande autre chose.

Parfait
