Burton Arctic Jacket Review



artic-bitters

$199

The Burton Notch is a jacket that that is a good choice for people who don't want to spend the extra money but need a lot of insulation.  10K waterproofing and breathability is just average but you are getting a lot of warmth for the price. Fleece along with insulation makes for a pretty warm jacket that isn't overly baggy. You also get a lot of pockets and good all around weather protection without too much layering. The Artic is a well built jacket with good stitching, reasonable waterproofing and has a reasonable price. It's hard to not recommend a Burton Jacket because even if you have issues the customer service is exceptional and should fix them.

The Good Ride Take

The Good Ride Take on Burton

Burton is huge. They have developed or acquired most of the technology that we use today. Burton is one of the only companies that can provide you with everything you need to snowboard from boards to beanies.  Burton even owns arguably the best surfboard company Channel Islands because Jake likes to surf.  They are like the Yankees of snowboarding because they can always outspend their competition to win.

The positives- Burton provides more products for each gear/clothing/accessory category than any other company.  Burton has possibly the best customer service in the snowboarding industry.  Burton continuously spends more money than almost any company to develop new tech or just make what they have better.   Burton sponsors more pro’s and get’s more high level user feed back than any other company.  They have some of the best boots, bindings and boards in the industry.  They also have great clothing.
The Negatives- Because Burton spends so much money on sponsorship and tech they have to pass this cost along to the products they sell.   They relentlessly continue to jack up the prices every year.  You are almost always going to get a good product from Burton’s higher end line but some mid to low level products don’t stack up to the competition in the same price range.   Just remember it’s not always good because it hast the Burton label on it.

Looking for your “one” jacket this season? With a clean design that only adds to the versatility of this mountain equipped, classic fitting, insulated jacket, you’re looking at something that works pipe, park and powder with equal fury. The Burton Arctic Jacket plays the field offering unique fabric options, ample venting, and a laundry list of shred necessities hidden throughout such as pockets for all your paraphernalia, NEW Thumb Grip cuff-to-glove interface, and a removable snow-blocking waist gaiter.
