Looks nice. Water proof. Zip off sleeves. None of that extremely skinny tall fit bullshit. Make it normal width but longer.
 
For a while, I had two jackets. One for everyday type of stuff, and another for skinning/hiking/moving in the backcountry.
I found that the more waterproof and useful of the two (BC jacket) was more than adequate for everything I do inbounds, so I sold the other.
Honestly, I like it a lot. Not many pockets, but it's full Goretex, perfect hood, and the pockets are designed to be opened while wearing a pack.
 
leopard fur on the inside. retractable spike strips and machine guns. Tall as fuck. solid gold zippers. fireproof/bombproof. 90k/90k
