Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I used this product over a summer of guideing mountain bike trips in Juneau AK It didnt hold up to the rain quite like i thought it might. It has an amazing fit and looks great on anyone. I havent had a chance to do any alpine climbing or technical "trips" with it but i can imagine it will be great on a dry powder day in our AK mountains.
