Appears I'm too late.
I have never found a use for a powder skirt.

I've seen some jackets on the mountain by Mountain Hardwear, which were sharp looking. I believe the company started out in mountaineering and added some items for skiers, like the Cutaway jacket:

I'm considering getting one for next season. Three color selections. At $250 it's cheaper than most of the other jackets mentioned yet the quality looks very good and the buyer reviews are positive.
Does anyone have experience with Mountain Hardwear?
I have a MH Windstopper fleece and soft shell. The fleece is great for every day use. I skied in it twice this season. It works pretty well for short sessions. I got the soft shell for spring skiing. It's a very nice jacket, in fact, because it's raining, I'm wearing it today. For skiing, it worked, but I found my self wanting something a little more ski specific. I picked up the Synchro jacket. It's more of what I was looking for and the jacket looks and feels like it's meant take on the weather. The Dragon I got in a XL and it fits me nicely, but the Synchro is a XXL.I've seen some jackets on the mountain by Mountain Hardwear, which were sharp looking.

Bump!
Figured I would start looking for jackets early this week. I bought a medium Patagonia Powder Bowl jacket online the other week. It fit good other than the sleeves are about 6-8" too long on me(i'm 5-8) so I sent it back.
Anyone know what is going on with Cloudveil this year? I thought I remember reading that the private investors bought it back the end of last winter. I have a couple things from them and they all fit me perfectly and am interested in getting a jacket from them. Looked at their website, but it doesn't have any winter stuff up yet. Just wondering if anyone's herd whats going on with them?
I need to lose some weight by ski season. My Cloudveil was kinda tight last year and I've put 10lbs on since ...
Get crackin' dude on the weight. I've just knocked off 35 lb with another 20 to go. Last year was my highest weight ever and my worst year skiing ever. Always over tired. Like carrying a baby around. Trust me, you'll ski better and feel better.
where at and for for how much?
that's a good deal. I'll be interested to hear how you like it. I wonder how bulky it is being insulated
