If you get the email coupons, Sierra's price on the Compressor is only $75 - best I've ever seen.

I decided to go pick one up locally from Oregon Mountain Community for $100...
Same price really, and I got my pick of colors...
Nice Jacket!! I am wearing it right now, as a matter of fact...

Depends on what you are using it for.

True, a hood doesn't look as "cool," so what, its weight that counts, not how cool you look. If how cool you look counts then don't buy "mountaineering gear" Just go with Cotton and a button down shirt with a tux top. Vanity, bah humbug.OJ Loenneker wrote:Wastral wrote:no hood = useless.
