BNQT.com reviews the OR Maximus Jacket:
"Built for alpinists who spend extended time in the most extreme conditions, the Maximus jacket is Outdoor Research’s burliest, most fully featured suit of armor for alpine climbing. Beat this jacket up, and it’ll just come back looking for more abuse … just like an alpine climber. Three-layer Gore-Tex Pro Shell fabric provides ultimate protection from the harshest conditions, while double-sliding hem-to-pit TorsoFlo zippers on either side of the jacket allow practical, easy-to-use ventilation. A fully adjustable, helmet-compatible hood stays out of the way when not in use thanks to a stash tab, and well-thought-out shoulder gusset construction keeps the front of the jacket flat and the hem from lifting while holding on to ice tools overhead. Zippered internal pockets that have media ports provide weather-proof access to tunes for getting through insufferable bivys."
