Macai Jacket Men's

Super versatile ski jacket. Very warm but you're also able to dump a ton of heat through the vents if you need to. It's been my only ski jacket for the past 2 season and I've used it between -3 to -30 C with zero complaints. Only thing to note is that because it is an insulated jacket, it makes Gore-Tex repairs more complicated. I managed to tear a small hole in my sleeve and the only suggested fix was Tenacious Tape (which I've had no problems with). If you're looking for a more permanently repairable option, perhaps go with a shell jacket and an insulated layer.

The Macai jacket is excellent, warm and very well constructed.

Just skied for 3 days and really had a good range of temps to try this jacket , from 12°F to 34°F. With proper base, this jacket can keep you warm and vents great. I struggled a great deal while on the lift when trying to zipper the entire jacket up and down the neck area. Terrible. Had to hold the collar by my teeth to get zipper down and forget about getting it all the way up on your own. The zipper ease of use, all of them, are what you’d expect on an $300 jacket. Also, I’m 6’, 175 lbs with a 32” waist. I bought the medium and felt like my big brother let me use his jacket. It was big. It was long in the sleeve and too roomy.

Pros: - Fits incredibly well, super comfortable - Wildly warm; pit zips are a godsend, and VERY happy they're mesh-lined! - Looks so good it makes for an awesome (very) cold-weather everyday jacket, especially if you pop off the hood and skirt - Lining is comfortable enough to wear over bare skin, just be sure you open the zips so you don't sweat in it - Cinches well everywhere, keeps out everything Cons: - Wildly warm; seriously, if you're snowboarding in this thing, unless you're snowboarding down Annapurna wear it over just a thin base layer - The external chest pocket is almost entirely useless, and is good for no more than a credit card, a few bills, maybe a stick of gum or a lighter. Expanding that pocket to fit a phone would be really, really appreciated by probably everyone, since that leaves you with having to use the internal chest pocket (which is nice, by the way) and unzipping every time That ridiculous external chest pocket really is the only flaw in this jacket, and it's become not just a mountain jacket, but my everyday super cold-weather jacket (I run warm, and over a t-shirt in -7 C with moderate exertion was sweating so much I took the jacket off for 30+ minutes to cool off). This is a beast of a jacket, and one friend who's seen it has already ordered his own.

Bought this jacket on a good rainy day in NH out skiing. It is so warm and the heavy rain didn’t stand a chance. It looks amazing to rock daily without it looking like you are wearing a ski jacket. You may need to sell a kidney afford one but you have 2 kidneys so I say it’s worth it.

I was finally able to buy my size online, black never being in stock. Great fit and warmth. The reviews are truthful

I am very happy to purchase this garment, and I think it is great

I love Arcteryx gear but sometimes they forget that technical outweighs fashion. My first priority is down and that’s getting harder and harder to find. If I’m back country then it’s a shell and Thorium mid layer. If it’s on the hill you also need the space in the jacket to carry glove liners, ski pass, phone and usually a small walkie talkie. The jacket looks like it has two outer breast pockets…but there is only one measly pocket and not sure what it’s for. The spot for an electronic ski pass is up near the shoulder not down near the wrist which is the norm so you can swip at the gate. It’s is an old school pass that needs to be scanned…no where to attach it on the outside. At the price of this jacket now…it should be perfect.

After owning several different high end winter ski and luxury jackets / parkas, this one is very basic for the price point. Some inner cuffs would be nice, maybe a zip out inner puffer perhaps? I also tried on several jackets this season in hopes of finding a new snowboard jacket.I found that some other brands hit the mark at around $600. I feel this jacket should be half the price for what it is ultimately.

Very suitable and warm down jacket， i like it so much.

I have owned this jacket before and wanted to purchase it last year but is very popular. It is pricey but a very good jacket and is great looking

Owned the Macai for four years now. Pros: light, warm, simple design Cons: main zipper broke after very light use. Liner fabric inside sleeves is coming apart from the cuff (only from rubbing against skin), my gloves always go over the outside of the jacket. Overall quality is not commensurate with the price. If the logo is important to you, get one. If it’s not, there are superior products elsewhere for less money.

I bought my Macai jacket 3 weeks ago It fits great, it is warm so far I use it as my everything jacket.

So warmth and versatile. Really like this jacket.

This jacket is great on cold ski days. The insulation quality is superb without the weight. the detachable hood has room to go over you helmet and really keeps your head warm. The fit is not bulky and has great range of motion for skiing.

just bought my second Macai jacket. wore the first out and then traded it in. Wear it skiing and walking my dog at 5am! simple perfect. Love the warmth and wind breaking ability. also love the collar and the length (waist cuff, did not want something that covered my butt)

Bought Macai jackets last year for my three sons and they all love them. We live in Minnesota and it is the first winter jacket that has kept them completely warm and dry.
