Sometimes quality doesn't mean quantity of stuff. That's the case with the Burton Women's Concert Jacket. It still offers a number of specialty pockets such as a sound pocket with headphone cable port Pass Pocket™ and goggle pocket but that pretty much covers all the extras. The focus here is offering the snowboarder the comfort essentials. Thermacore™ insulation throughout provides low-bulk heat retention while a Storm-lite® 1.0-E water resistant shell with taping of all major seams keeps the average rider dry (unless carving up the slopes in a slushy downpour is your idea of fun). One can engage the waist gaiter if surfing fresh powder or tighten the hem cinch if a cold wind is swirling at their feet. Also zippered neck and cuff expansion gussets allow for easy pull-on over long glove or mitt gauntlets and free up a little breathing room around the chin when sealing out a cold wind.
