Thumb Hole Cuff: Helpful when putting on layers or warmer on a chilly day, thumb holes hold the cuff of your shirt over your hand.
10,000g Breathability: Not quite like a cotton sweatshirt, but not a rubber suit either, this fabric still does a great job of transporting moisture away from the body so its not a sauna every time it warms up a bit.
Light Insulation: This piece has a light layer of insulation to add just a touch of warmth and minimize the need for an additional layer. On cold days you will need to augment this with a nice base layer.
Powder skirt: An elastic waist with snaps built into the jacket to keep snow out of the undies even when turfing in deep powder
MP3 pocket: Extra pocket to keep your MP3 player rocking music, so you can tune out all that nature stuff.
Polyester Twill Fabric: A durable, breathable and water resistant fabric designed to ensure warmth and dryness all season long. This material has a 10k waterproof rating and a 10k breath-ability rating which will definitely do the trick.
Pit Zips: Zippers under the armpit to get some airflow going when you've overdressed, or got overworked from flailing in the powder.
Taped seams: For maximum waterproofing, the seams on this piece of outerwear are taped internally. This feature also strengthens the seam and improves the durability.
Attached Hood: This jacket/sweatshirt has an attached hood, which is good if you like hoods, because its not going anywhere. If you don?t like hoods, probably best to find a different item.
10,000 Waterproof rating: This is a very high waterproof rating, found on the best outdoor gear available. It will keep you dry even in a downpour of rain, and still has the ability to breathe so it doesn't feel like a garbage bag. There are higher rated fabrics, but for average, even above average users, the 10k is more than enough to get the job done.
