Not a helmet debate!!

Like the title says, its not a helmet debate.

Anyway, I am looking at getting a Dainese ski jacket and just wanted to know opinions on them.

I have Dainese motorcycle leathers and they are excellent quality. Just want to know if the same can be said for their ski wear.

Looks technical stuff to me.
Any particular reason why you want it, as oppose to any other specific brand?

I just thought that I hadnt seen alot of Dainese jackets on the slopes as opposed to other brands (Tresspass, Dare2Be, Spyder etc etc.)

Though I would imagine most of the spyders to be the moody Jap copies.

Another jacket which I am pondering over is a Helly Hansen.

I've recently brought a Dainese jacket (Albertville) . It fits great and i love it . One thing though,it hasn't got a windbreaker flap covering the zip .
