Our take on the REI Co-op Men's Powderbound 3-in-1 Jacket

The REI Co-op Men's Powderbound 3-in-1 Jacket is a thigh-length snowsports shell with a removable 80 g MidLoft synthetic insulated liner, so it works as a shell, a light insulated jacket, or both together. It has pit zips, a hood, and two zippered tricot-lined hand pockets. It is built for skiing and snowboarding rather than everyday wear. It is REI's own brand, sold mainly through REI, and its price has held fairly steady rather than swinging widely.

Best forResort skiers and snowboarders who want one jacket for cold and mild daysShoppers who want shell-plus-liner versatility without buying two jacketsPlus-size men: the XXXL fits a 54–57 in chestBuyers who prefer REI's co-op warranty and return policy
Pros
  • Three jackets in one: shell, insulated liner, or both
  • 80 g synthetic insulation stays warm when damp
  • Pit zips dump heat on climbs and warm afternoons
  • Thigh length adds coverage on lifts and in powder
  • Windproof shell with a hood for storm days
  • Tricot-lined hand pockets feel warm on bare hands
Cons
  • Only two pockets on the shell; no chest or pass pocket listed
  • Synthetic fill is bulkier and heavier than down
  • No waterproofing rating given, so deep wet snow is a question mark
  • Hood may not fit over a helmet
  • Limited to REI channels, so few competing prices

Questions and answers

Is the Powderbound 3-in-1 worth it?
If you ski or ride resorts in mixed conditions, yes. One purchase covers cold days with the liner in and warm spring days with it out. If you only ski in deep cold, a dedicated insulated jacket may be warmer for the money.
How warm is it compared with a down jacket?
The 80 g synthetic liner is warm for lift-served skiing but not as warm per ounce as down. It keeps insulating if it gets damp, which down does not.
Can I wear the liner on its own?
Yes. The liner zips out and works as a light insulated jacket for around town or apres-ski.
Does the hood fit over a ski helmet?
It is a hooded shell, but owners report it is snug over a helmet. Try it on with your helmet if you plan to wear it up on storm days.
What sizes does it come in?
It runs to XXXL, which fits a 54–57 in chest. Check REI's size chart, since the fit is described as roomy.
When is it cheapest?
REI discounts its own-brand jackets during seasonal sales and clearance, typically late winter and again in late summer. Watch the price history before buying at full price.
