I definitely feel ready for the winter and shall not dread the prospect of snow quite so much with this fantastic jacket. I hadn't personally heard of Ultrasport but having tried several ski-jackets and heavy duty extreme weather type clothing I would say they were up there with the best.
The best thing about this jacket is that it is lightweight, non-restrictive and you don't have that uncomfortable 'can't move my arms' feeling. It is well designed with skiing, snow and extreme weather in mind. It has many pockets put in convenient places just where you need them - it even has ski features such as a ski skirt and an attached cloth for use with your goggles which is a thoughtful touch and invaluable.
Most options are removable so you can customise this to suit you. (The hood, fur, snow skirt etc) there's even a pocket designed for ipod use with a cable hole so you're spoilt with the real ease of use this brings.
Testing it out initially during the current cold snap and small amount of snow I can confirm this is a very warm jacket, stops wind getting in, the hood is very snug and comes right around your face, also keeping you warm in strong winds. The thumb holes on the sleeves are great for keeping your sleeves over your hands if you're not a fan of gloves and it's a generous size - we tried the XXL - which is very large but good to allow for a lot of layers underneath.
All in all a fantastically well made jacket, up there with the best, designed specifically with skiing in mind so i'll be looking forward to trying this out next time I go. Highly recommended even for just a winter jacket - very warm and multi-functional - great price too.

Cuffs with soft and elastic thumb holes on both sides keep the wind or snow from entering your sleeves. On the waistline the snow-skirt, which can be closed with press studs or detached, prevents snow from being pushed up from underneath the jacket. |
Three outer zip pockets and one with press studs offer plenty of space for your little bits and pieces. There is also a ski pass pocket on the sleeve. |
Two internal zip pockets, one with rubberised headphone port and a second port near the collar, make integrated and secure headphone cable management possible. The internal mesh pocket is ideal for ski goggle and glove storage. There is a removable lens cleaning cloth attached to the mesh pocket with a bungee cord so that you can keep your ski goggles clean. |
