I've been wearing bloom outerwear for a few seasons but I've been hearing good stuff about Armada's jackets. Just curious how they fit in comparison to bloom. I'm 6'2 and I like the length around midthigh.
Also, which jacket is best for the value? The Atka and the Sherwin jacket are definately catching my eye aesthetically.
Hey Sconnie,
I'm one of the CSA employees over at Armada so I can definitely help shed some insight on those jackets. The Sherwin jacket length in size large from your shoulder to the bottom hem is approximately 33 5/8". The XL size is about 1 to 2" longer. It definitely fits taller than the Balfour. I'm around 5ft 10" and the size large is pretty close to mid-thigh. The Sherwin Jacket is definitely a hardshell so you'll want to layer a hoodie or tech. layer underneath or you'll get pretty cold skiing at the resort. It is perfect as a resort/touring jacket.
The Atka Jacket fits pretty true to size similar to the Sherwin but it is 1 inch longer in length. The XL Atka jacket will be around 35 5/8" in length. If you have a tape measure, you can check and see if that length looks good for you. The Atka has warm insulation so it will work great as a daily resort skiing jacket.

So i have a question on a different jacket... You know the zipper length on the XL Trapper Down Jacket from last year? Evo is having a sale and a t 15k/15k down jacket sounds pretty good for the PNW...
