Lowe Alpine Treklite Jacket - Waterproof Triplepoint® (For Women)

Size is small a little. Design is so nice. Light weight.

All the Lowe Treklite jackets have a couple nasty design flaws: The new models are too short for good coverage sitting down (3" shorter than older Lowe jackets).. They also sport a ONE-WAY zipper rather than the more common 2-way parka zipper. These jackets are just long enough that when zipped, the jacket binds if you squat down or sit. I was really disappointed as I had high hopes that this would be "the one" to replace my 15-yr old Lowe Treklite jacket that finally died.

Used it to climb up to 14,000 feet and it help up the the brutal wind, slightly below freezing temp, and light snow.

Excellent recreational coat for hiking due to it's lightweight, breathable, waterproof material.

Great all round jacket

I sent this jacket back just because of the collar, I'll say it one more time... IT'S TOO BIG.

I'm disappointed with this coat. The last Lowe Alpine rain coat I had was awesome in the almost daily downpours we have, with the best hood I've ever had. This coat has a ridiculously huge, impossible to adjust hood. That would be tolerable, but I hike one to four hours per day in a rain forest. This coat soaks through on my arms every single day. I'm returning it for a refund.

hood cover your whole face so you can't see narrow in the hip area too large in the chest also

This item fits large. I ordered a large as I am a tall woman who usually needs a large for sleeve length. I probably could have fit into a medium better but have decided to stay with the large so that I can fit many layers underneath if I need to. It is an attractive coat, very waterproof and good breathability. I really miss the pit-zips that my old coat had - the zip vents on the sleeves just don't cut it. In general it is comfortable, light and does its job as a waterproof breathable layer.
