Yeah...I've heard the same. Have you checked online for the salomon? (if it isn't up anywhere it should be within the next few weeks) Or go to salomon's site and look up dealers and give one that's closeby a call. There are also quite a few purples in Holden's lineup if I'm not mistaken.
Check with Ronin. They always have plain jackets. Don't get a women's jacket because they are just too short. I mean, you don't want snow down your ass, right?
BTW If you go to the Burton website you can find outerwear and gear by color.
