TACVASENMen's Waterproof Fleece Mountain Jacket Windproof Warm Ski Jacket Multi-Pockets

When two of my Winter jackets that I mainly use for shopping, and light recreational use, gave problems with the zippers, I had to find an alternative. I looked at a number of options with little success, but this showed promise and doesn't disappoint. I wanted something water resistant, wind tolerant and warm with a good lining, and with zip pockets, A point on sizing. I would normally go for a medium, and I find this to be fine for say a thermal T shirt, shirt and jumper underneath, which is fine for my current UK Winter use. But if you want another layer underneath for colder conditions then a bigger size will probably be best, I think it really depends what you want it for. The main zipper works well both up and down, but I found that keeping the zipper straight by pulling the jacket down at the bottom, works best. The zipper toggle connector is a little fiddly until you get used to it. Three zip outer pockets, and one left inner, are all zippered, and are roomy enough for most things that I need to carry. The zips on the pockets work well. The zip detachable hood is a good idea, though it can be tricky to get back on until you get used to doing it. The hood fleece lining is warm and attaches at the chin with Velcro strips. When attached and down, the hood is unobtrusive and sits comfortably without being bulky. When up, there is enough room for a hat underneath (something like a beanie or a cap) which is handy when it's cold, and there are draw strings to pull it tauter if required. The main zipper comes up to the chin. there is also a flap with a pop connector at the top and bottom with two Velcro connectors in between which keeps the main zipper weather protected. The jackets come folded in a plastic bag, and there has been some mention in reviews about creasing. I found that many of these creases came out after washing and ironing, (though not entirely), but in use this isn't an issue for me as they only blend with normal wear creasing and isn't really noticeable. I feel that these jackets probably lean more towards practical use anyway, rather than the fashionable, (for which you would have to pay a lot more) although they are casually smart enough for general use. I'm impressed wit these jackets, and there has obviously been plenty of thought put into the design of them.They are well designed and featured jackets for anything like the asking price.

I have waited a while before reviewing this as I was waiting to get caught in the rain, which I now have. This is a seriously warm and toasty jacket. It is winter here and i have been out in the cold multiple times with only a t shirt on underneath and I cannot feel the cold at all. It works extremely well in the rain, got caught in very heavy shower and no problems at all. The hood is excellent and also very warm. I am 66 and this is the best winter jacket I have ever had. My only complaint, if you could call it that are the pockets. Though the side hand pockets are excellent the inside one should be bigger and vertical not horizontal. The outside pocket should be bigger with a longer zip. There actually should be more pockets. I believe that the overall price is very good and all in all this is an excellent product. I just hope that it lasts for a long time.

great jacket, very warm and well made, fits well although if you are short in the body as i am it may ruffle up quite abit specially being in a wheelchair, waterproofing isnt as thick as advertised but it will do for normal wet weather i think, overall very happy with it.

This coat, at this price point, is incredible.I was not expecting much when I bought this. I thought it would be a somewhat flimsy shell that might do the job with a sweater.I was wrong.The quality in the construction is there. The fleece inner is very effective. I went for a walk in almost 0 degree temperatures in a t-shirt and this coat and I was toasty.The hood has a velcro strap to help secure it around your chin and it works.My only criticism is that the space around the armpits is a tad snug if you wear anything substantial under the coat. For this reason alone, I would consider going a size up based off their size chart if you are on the larger side.Very happy with this coat and frankly amazed it is this good for this price.

Lightweight, very warm, waterproof, wind resistant, stylish and a bargain when compared to other jackets of the same quality.

Great! True to size, very warm,

It’s a solid, warm comfortable coat. A little short on pockets but, given the price, I’m not complaining. However, it is described as a “ski jacket” but it’s missing several basic components. A ski jacket has a snow skirt at the waist and secondary elasticated cuffs at the wrists to keep the powder out when you fall - this coat doesn’t. A ski jacket usually has a big internal pocket large enough to store goggles - again this doesn’t. And the biggest omission by far is that there is no pocket on the left wrist to hold the RFID ski lift pass.Nice coat but no use if you’re going skiing.

I work outside and this jacket is by far the best jacket i've ever had. It's comfy, It's super warm and it keeps you really dry even in torrential rain like we have in scotland lol. Best value for money i've spent 👌 had all sorts of branded jackets and none even come close to this jacket 👍👌
