By shorty from bozeman, mt on 10/03/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: this is a versatile piece that really shines in cold windy weather as a stand alone jacket or layered under a shell in wet nasty conditions. looks great on its own because of the trim fit and vibrant color (i have red xs).very warm.
Great jacket, but not what I expected By RunnerGirl NM from NM on 01/20/2009 Pros: Durable, Warm, Windproof Cons: Huge on top, Not as advertised Best Uses: Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Outdoor Professional Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased this jacket as an additional ski jacket. When I received it and read the labels on the jacket, it said it was designed as a fishing jacket! It was way to big, and was not what I was looking for as a ski jacket. Beautifully made, just not what I needed.
By cloudveil fan not on payroll from NYC on 11/06/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Warm, Windproof Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Is this the right price for this garment? I have the men's version and don't recall paying this high a price for it. Please double check the pricing on this garment. It's only windstopper fleece and not some exotic material that would carry such a price premium.
By Biker in Denver from Denver, CO on 11/06/2008 Pros: Lightweight, Stylish, Warm Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Was looking for a jacket that I could use while riding my bike in Nov and living in Denver. I bought this and am glad I did. This is lightweight but protects from the wind and cool. It is perfect! I am small, under 5' and weigh less than 100 lb and the XS fit me perfectly. Would highly recommend this if you are looking for something to protect you against the wind and cool weather. Jacket is very well made.
Nice product - and it's RED!!!!! By Ceanothus from Santa Clarita, CA on 07/31/2008 Pros: Breathable, Durable, True Red, Warm Best Uses: Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased this product in anticipation of an Everest Base Camp trek this October-November, wanting a garment I could wear with my daypack that would be warm, breathable, windproof, and flexible without being a shell garment. The design, weight and color of this garment, in addition to the single other review ("super warm") attracted my attention. [...]The fit is athletic, not too tight but definitely fitted, closer around the hips than the shoulders. I am burdened with the classic female pear shape, so fit at the hips is always a concern. This M jacket fits smoothly over 41" hips, the shoulders aren't too big, and the extended turtleneck fits nicely under my chin. Sleeve length is perfect. Did I mention the color? It's RED!!!! my favorite equipment color in the mountains, and rarely used in women's technical clothing. [...] Comments on various features: The Napoleon pockets should work well for stashing snacks, lip balm, small camera, etc., without interference by pack straps. The fabric, with the Windstopper membrane, doesn't feel too "boardy" as I've noticed in other Windstopper garments. The turtleneck has a nifty elastic drawstring cord & lock mechanism inside the top edge, accessed by an exterior port at the back of the neck, for extra draft protection (imagine drawing the jacket's neck around the neck portion of a balaclava! Wind? What wind?). The only "con" - if it's a con - is that when I raise my arms the garment's torso section comes up slightly. Another manufacturer uses an "angel-wing" design to minimize this tendency. If I were Cloudveil...Apparently this garment's part of Cloudveil's Angling line - but it will be equally suitable for high-altitude hiking or street wear. Very, very nice garment. I expect to be warm. [...]
By Molly from California on 12/27/2007 Pros: Durable, Lightweight, Warm Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I wear this over a light sweater when it's super windy and it's perfect. The collar is a little high though for me but it does keep you very warm.
