    this intern should've done a little more research. that fishtail is far from anything "technical"... not to mention that special blend is one of the lower end jackets in the line. don't think snowboarders and actual outdoors peeps aren't checkin this blog!

    This intern needs some help with defining "technical." They killed me in the Fall top 10, when the Supreme stadium jacket made the list with a snap front...fail. Now with a Quiksilver 5K "dumb-dumb" jacket, far from technical, and an $80 Special Blend jacket? Come on... it's called research. The others are good choices, more out there though. EB's First Ascent line? Marmot?
