O'Neill was kind enough to hook me up with two jackets this winter while I waited to receive a sample of our next year's collab jacket with them, and one of them was the Toots.
Design-wise, with all due to respect to other jackets from other companies I've owned, this (in my opinion) is the coolest looking jacket I've ever had. It has a dark brown body with tobacco brown arms, and because I think the tobacco brown is such a dope looking color our next year's collab jacket with O'Neill will also feature the same color on the arms. I also love the black waistband at the bottom, along with the snow camo liner in the hood, as it gives the jacket some extra flair and makes it look and feel really unique.
Fit-wise, it's somewhat on the taller side (but not too tall), and slim (as opposed to most tall jackets, which tend to be wide/baggy as well), and I love the fit of this jacket so much (more so than any jacket I've ever owned to be honest) that I suggested we use the same specs for next year's O'Neill/Newschoolers collab jacket, which is what exactly we're doing.
Tech-wise, it boats a 10,000mm waterproof and breathability rating (which is great in pretty much every condition with the exception of torrential rain), along with critically taped seams, and a host of cool pockets to hold your goggles, iPod and other essential items while you're skiing.
Definitely check out this and other jackets from O'Neill, and get stoked for our collab with them next year.
