They both look like solid jackets, but which one is better?

I have the Sabek switch jacket and most days I only wear a long sleeve thermal under it. When it's really dumpingand super cold I'll put on three light layers but I end up taking one off usually if I warm up throughout the day and put it in m backpack. I don't know where you're skiing but that's for weather up at Alta.

Nice. Thanks for the input man, I'm leaning towards the switch

I am a huge fan of my Bloom jacket. We had some -30 degree windchills in Michigan this year, and it helped up really nicely. Also lots of pocket space, and magnetic closing pockets are super nice. Love the jacket and their prices are super cheap right now!

Glad to hear man. It doesn't really matter which one I get now because I'll like whichever one I'll get. It'll come down to sizing

I have both and they are both pretty nice. I like the Sabek one because you can wear it as a vest and it is a little better fit.
