Kitzbuhel Jacket - Women's

When you get decked out for a day out on the town during your ski trip, pull on the Marmot Women’s Kitzbuhel Jacket, and get toasty warmth and style worthy of its Austrian namesake. This Primaloft-insulated jacket stays warm when wet and keeps you warm without making you look like a marshmallow. The DriClime-lined chin guard wicks moisture and protects your face from chafing, and an inside zippered pocket holds your cash. When you quit messin’ around and head into the mountains for some real action, the Polartec Power Stretch panels give you full range of motion and the elastic drawcord hem seals out the weather.

Bottom Line: Classy Euro style that holds its own in the mountains.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

This jacket was exactly what I was looking for. A lightweight jacket that packs a punch when it comes to warmth. I wanted a jacket that worked like an oversized down but still flattered my body. The all black jacket is perfect for any occasion, I can wear it on the bus on my way to work (with nice clothes), or on an adventure. (Be cautious if you do not like the glossy look, it appears wet.)

SWEET

Just got this today. Ordered in Kashmir, it's like orange, but on FIRE. It has a really flattering cut--narrow waist, plus the black side panels look goooood on, make you look really slender. Anyway. It is also pleasantly warm--I plan to wear it under a shell skiing and to take it backpacking for my warm layer. Has nice long sleeves (I'm 5'10", this can be hard to find) and is just all around comfortable. Also, I'm 145 lbs but pear-shaped and ordered a M, correct size for me. I spilled a bunch of water on it earlier washing dishes and it dried hella fast, also. The sleeves are a little tight but not problematically so, mostly because they're quite long. Woohoo Kitz!

A women's medium Denali jacket measures 26", the Kitzbuhel measures 24" for center back length.

It and the denali are two different kinds of jackets. Other than that, this one fits nicely at the waste and is very feminine cut. The denali is an overpriced step above junk.

Sweet but runs small

Seems to run small. I'm usually a solid Medium, but in this sweet jacket, the sleeve hole is too tight, as is the waist. Going to exchange for a large since it's such a nice piece.

WARNING - WRONG SIZE CHART ON THIS LISTING!!!

By:

Be careful when ordering this jacket on Backcountry. The sizing chart that pops up is for MENS coats and the measurements are not the same! It's a very nice coat: good construction & lightweight.
