Fit

The Dope Blizzard Pullover fit me pretty well and that isn’t always easy having medium arms, an XL chest and L torso.

Construction

For this price point the Dope Blizzard Pullover does a great job at building a jacket that should last a pretty long time.

Waterproofing/Breathability

So the Dope Blizzard Pullover does pretty well with breathability and it’s about what you would expect for this 15k/15gm waterproofing/breathability rating.When it’s stretch material like this I always discount the waterproofing a bit because when the material stretches it lets moisture in a little more easy.

Wind Resistance

I did a same day test with a Gore-Tex jacket to see how the Dope Blizzard Pullover blocks wind and allows the layers underneath to do their job. I took one run with the Blizzard and then another with a Gore-Tex Jacket. The Gore-Tex jacket definitely did a lot better but this wasn’t bad for being more than half the price.

Hood/Helmet Compatibilty

This is a personal deal breaker for me as I wear a helmet almost every day I ride. I couldn’t get the Large Dope Blizzard Pullover hood over my Medium Smith Maze helmet.

Cuff/Glove Compatibility

Not bad but I wouldn’t mind a little bigger cuff.

Pit Zips

I love the open pit zips and venting on the Dope Blizzard Pullover.

Pockets

There aren’t a lot of pockets and it’s a very simple jacket.

Conclusion

So for me, the Dope Blizzard Pullover isn’t ideal for every day use for where I ride at Mt. Bachelor. We get a lot of wind, a lot of wet snow and occasional rain. I need a pretty serious jacket for that and I also want a helmet compatible hood. That being said, this is a great jacket for those who see more dry weather and are on a budget.
