Sexy lines, a flattering fit, and Power Shield’s high breathability and weather-shunning performance—the Backcountry Women’s Rime Pullover Jacket owns the equinoxes. Whether you’re heading out for a hike in autumn’s technicolor blanket or stomping up a skin track in spring, the Rime’s lightweight but weather-shirking Power Shield softshell fabric holds warmth close while allowing excessive body heat escape when you work up a sweat. A ¼ chest zip offers extra ventilation when the day heats up, and the arm pocket keeps tabs on smaller items while you’re on the go.
Bottom Line: The in-between seasons softshell you’ve always dreamed about.
I didn't expect too much of this jacket, other than wearing it for cool morning rides or run. But I find myself reaching for it for just about everything. It fits snug, but I like it that way - don't want too much material when you're being active.
Sizing is bang-on. I always wear XS in backcountry brand and this is no exception.
The only downside to it is I have long monkey arms so the arms are on the short side, especially if I'm on my bike. Same with the hem, I wish it was about an inch longer.
I'd say it's pretty darn waterproof, I've ridden in a downpour and it kept me dry, and definitely wind proof. Love the fleece backing, all cosy inside.
I get compliments every time I wear it. Definitely worth every single penny!
I bought this for my wife, and I own the men's version. It is definitely fitted, meaning that if you are planning on wearing anything more than a thin baselayer underneath (or are larger chested) I would consider sizing up. It is indeed quite water-resistant, and does fairly well in wind. It breathes really well, and with its softness (and fitted sizing) it works great as a layering piece. It's thin and light, and packs really small.
really liked the design and fabric of this pullover but I didn't like how it was kind of difficult to get on. I have big shoulders though and am generally not a fan of pullovers unless they are stretchy. if you don't have big swimmer shoulders you will be just fine in this jacket
Wore it for ten days straight, handled everything from rain/snow hiking Fitz Roy to strolling about town in Buenos Aires. Was incredibly warm with just a wool base layer underneath and kept out all but incredibly heavy downpour, plus it stands out and looks good in all my photos from the trip.
this is my second backcountry piece and i am really satisfied with it. the color is unique but not too flashy - the merlot looks great with dark jeans. blocks wind pretty well, even with just a tshirt underneath. i am 5'5" and ordered a small, it was a little tricky to get on with a thermal underneath, but once on, it slides into place and stays there. i wish the armholes gave a little though, as i tend to pull my sleeves up a lot.
Love this. I normally wear a medium but went for the large, which was definitely a good call. I've worn it underneath a heavier duty shell as an extra layer on cold ski days, and on its own running and nordic skiing. I like that the collar isn't super high so it fits nicely under another jacket. Oh, and "highly water resistant" = beads up nicely unless you are literally dumping buckets of water on yourself. Trust me, I accidentally tested it out with coffee.
