Burton Soft Shell Hoddie Review

sherwood
$149
A very well made well waterproofed soft shell that works as well as some jackets in most conditions.  This is made for warmer days or wearing off the mountain but it can also hang in most conditions on the mountain as well.   It aslo has a jacket to pant interface that you don't see on most shells.  Remember most soft shells like this are 1 layer so 10k waterproofing isn't like most of the technical 2 layer normal shells.  Still the Burton Soft Shell Hoddie takes snowboard styling to a technical level which is needed. If you want something you can wear off and on the mountain this isn't a bad piece to add to your outerwear collection.  This runs a little more on the bagy side of things if you compare it to the other soft shells out there.

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.

Burton Soft Shell Hoodie 2012

 
technical fleece Details

The Burton Softshell Hoodie combines the “cool” factor of riding in a hoodie with the “your mother would approve” common sense of weatherproof/breathable DRYRIDE Stretch Softshell™ AirTech® fabric. Ready to kill it in any condition, the fleece lining adds to the overall warmth and breathability, while venting Pit Zips™ are a dream in the spring. The Team Fit (a little bit longer and more relaxed) gives you added coverage where it matters most. As an added bonus, this hoodie can also be connected to your snowboard pants to keep snow and weather from sneaking in.
