    Powder7 Staff Pick Tyler J
    By: Tyler J
    I bought the Outdoor Research Skytour Ascentshell ski jacket back in November of 2023 with the intent of using primarily as a touring jacket, replacing my heavy duty bombproof older jacket. It is now January of 2024 and this jacket has completely supplanted the other outer layers in my inventory. I use it for roughly 1/3 touring and 2/3 resort and have found it to be totally up to muster in both situations. It is light, well vented, and feels easy to move around it, but has been very water and wind proof in everything from early season wintery mix, to waist deep powder at Steamboat. It's got a sleeve pocket for holding those pesky passes, great arm pit vents, and a hood that feels comfortable over the helmet. It is a great jacket and performs as well as many other jackets that are $200-$300 more. If you're the type to go with a shell and just modify your layers underneath to suit the conditions, I say go with it. For reference, I'm 5'11 and 160lbs and wear an XL, but probably should have gone with the large. If you do size up though, it won't look ridiculous, especially if you opt for baggy over trim most of the time. For best results pair with the Flylow Smythe bib.

    Our Take:

    The most comfortable hard shell ski jacket ever, thanks to AscentShell™ technology. Lightweight, breathable, waterproof stretch for the backcountry can be yours. Find out why GearJunkie ranked this in their ‘Best Ski Jackets of 2021.’ Staying dry and comfortable on backcountry tours is possible, and it’s made possible by AscentShell™ technology. The most breathable waterproof comfort in a 3L stretchy membrane, this ride and ski jacket is perfect for adventurers who want lightweight protection while they’re moving fast uphill. An adjustable hood with HoodLock™ holds down excess fabric when your helmet is removed. Pit zips make it easy to ventilate excess heat when your pace turns up, and waterproof zippers with internal stash pockets keep valuables dry when the weather rolls in and powder turns call. Feel the difference when you try on the Skytour AscentShell Jacket yourself.
