I've ordered from them before and always been pleased.

This time I picked up the brand new WM Hooded Flash Jacket.

Thanks so much for posting!!! I just used the discout to get $50 off a western mountaineering bag and I got a free $50 gift certificate from bentgate.com for ordering.

I've been wanting a WM Flash Vest which are hard to find on sale. So thanks for the discount code.

Sean asked me what I thought of my new Hooded Flash Jacket.

Pros:

– Perfect workmanship.
– Nice pockets with down fill on both sides.
– Dacron or some stiffener behind the zipper so it doesn't snag the fabric.
– Draft tube behind the zipper.
– Hood is a good shape and generously sized.

Cons:

– The zipper is a little balky.
– The binding on the wrists and bottom hem isn't Lycra. It's something else that is much less stretchy. The bottom hem fits me fine so I don't mind, but the wrists are sized much too big probably because of this lack of stretch. They feel really drafty on me. I haven't had the jacket out in the cold yet but I'm concerned it may make a big difference. Given the high price I'm debating returning it because of this flaw.

Thanks for the heads up! Ordered a WM Alpinlite last week and it is fantastic!
