Fit
The fit is flattering for a build like mine and I could easily own this.
Construction
You don’t have the ultra high end zippers but you have top notch construction. All the seems look great.
Waterproofing/Breathability
Gore-Tex makes this great for wet weather. I like smoother outer layers that help shed off moisture easier but it isn’t bad. It will take a lot to get through that Gore-Tex Membrane.
Hood/Helmet Compatibilty
The Burton Pillowline Gore Tex Jacket has excellent helmet compatibility.
Cuff/Glove Compatibility
You have very wide cuffs that can also go tight to fit a glove over it.
Pit Zips
Meshed pit zips. Nothing to say here. They vent.
Pockets
You have 4 outer pockets and the inner pocket has some insulation for your phone. You have 2 big goggle pockets as well.
Powder Skirt
Typical pow skirt with the jacket to pant interface
Conclusion
The Burton Pillowline Gore Tex Jacket is a great jacket if you want insulation and excellent waterproofing.
The Burton Gore-Tex Pillowline Jacket is a 2 layer Gore-Tex Jacket that was just too big overall in a size large. The arm length was OK, however the length in the torso was too wide and long. I would like to try a size medium for comparison purposes. It is constructed out of a very soft 15 denier Gore-Tex fabric that felt very comfortable.
