I ripped a pair ski pants and a lightweight touring jacket from OR, and the replacements showed up the same day I put the torn ones in the mail.  They shipped me new clothes before even getting the old ones back.  +100 to Outdoor Research. 

Yeah I broke a zipper on an OR jacket and they sent me a replacement almost immediately, awesome customer service. 

Totally gonna buy this jacket. How bright is the orange? Too bright to wear around town?

Haha depends on the town I guess. NYC? Might be odd... Seattle/Boulder/North Conway? You’ll blend right in ;)

So Provo, I'll be good :-)

 I saw a guy wearing a Rab puffy and Boulder X approach shoes at the grocery store 2 minutes from my house in Perry Hall, a suburb of Baltimore. If he rock that I think you’ll be fine Mitchell.
