Aston Jacket

2.5 • 2 Reviews

Stylish but still functional. I bought an Aston jacket last season, which worked great on the slopes (with adequate base layers) - convenient pocket locations and a good length. I wish their ski pants came in a longer length option, but alas. I just added a fleece (nothing that a bunch of other brands don’t also sell) and the ugly-cute Hoka mocs which are very warm and have good grip.

I liked the jacket, but was very disappointed with the company’s integrity. I purchased a significant amount from them—almost $2,000 worth. Before ordering, I subscribed to their list to receive the advertised 10% discount, which was meaningful given the size of the purchase. I waited several days for the discount email, but it never arrived. I ultimately had to place the order in time for an upcoming ski trip. At the same time, I contacted customer service to explain the situation, expecting they would recognize the issue and honor the discount. They were polite, but instead of applying the 10% discount to my $2,000 order, they offered it on a future purchase “as a courtesy.” That response was disappointing. Whether by design or due to a flaw in their system, they failed to deliver on their promotion—and this was how they chose to handle it. I received the order and returned all of it. There are plenty of other independent ski clothing brands that do not treat customers this way. I rarely write reviews—good or bad—but felt compelled to share this negative experience with Halfdays.
