Backcountry.com Stoic 2.0 Shell - Women's

The waterproof breathable, fully-welded Backcountry.com Women’s Stoic 2.0 Shell has you covered whether you’re a week into an alpine climb or just a few hours from civilization. The Stoic 2.0’s slightly-stretchy, three-layer Bombshell fabric stands up to Mother Nature’s fallout without leaving you to suffocate when it’s time to breathe and the welded seams fend off moisture and layer-chafe. The 2.0’s flattering female-specific fit leaves room for layering and the ergonomic, welded design won’t fight you when you need to get dynamic. Pit vents offer relief when things warm up and waterproof-zippered pockets store your small items while you’re on the go.

Bottom Line: The Stoic 2.0 Shell weathers the storm.

Women's Stoic 2.0 Shell

By:
November 4, 2009

Bombproof.
The material is thick and strong, way more burly than I had expected.
The jacket is nice and waterproof and seems like it would perform in a variety of conditions. Skiing, touring, hiking, sitting in the rain, camping or anything else.
The cut is feminine and small. I'm 5'7" 115lbs and the small fits just perfectly. If I were any taller it would be too short. The arms are just long enough for me. The hood is well designed and comes right over my face to protect from wind and rain. Its cut like a gore-tex ski shell, but doesn't seem like it should be limited to just skiing. I intially bought it to be my around town/camping/hiking rain jacket as I already have an arcteryx shell for skiing. I might go ahead and use this one instead, as the cut of this one is less boxy and more flattering than my arcteryx beta AR.

This is a great jacket and a steal at the price. Fit is very flattering, although fits small so order up a size. Not a helmet hood, which I like.

I'm looking to order the Mountain hardware black down coat

I'm looking to order the Mountain hardware black down coat and was wondering if I need a shell like this one to go over it. I was planning on getting the small down coat and getting a medium shell. Would that be a good choice? Do I even need to get a shell with the down coat I am purchasing?

Not sure which Mountain Hardwear jacket you were looking at, but I would suggest layering with a down sweater and you guessed, smaller layers underneath covered by a larger shell.

nice shell. kind of short. if you plan on layering, size up. elastic around bottom hem doesn't pull super tight, and since there's no powder skirt i worry i'll get a bit cold if it's windy or i take a spill. on the positive side, zippers are smooth and smartly designed. construction seems bomber so far. nice shape for a women's jacket. for the price i'd say it's one of the best. sure, fancier shells are out there but not for $115. layer this with a down sweater or fleece for chilly days and you'll be happy, warm, and dry :-)

Girl is diggin' the Chocolate

By:
August 3, 2009

Got this on SAC for the wife after I got mine and she loves it. Replaces an older MH rain jacket that never fit right. Very female oriented cut that looks great on her, and the chocolate color is even nicer looking in person. This jacket is a little muggy down here in the south, but just about everything is. Burly fabric and the welded seams make it look like you spent a lot more for it. Haven't had any issues with performance yet. The only thing I would improve on this jacket would be to put a wire in the brim of the hood to give it a little more rigidity. Aside from that, great buy especially on SAC.

Would you use this shell as a top layer for skiing/snowboarding

Would you use this shell as a top layer for skiing/snowboarding on cold windy days with let's say a fleece and a merino first layer under? I need to be warm; sitting on a windy chairlift without a warm jacket isn't fun at all...

for sure! hood isn't exactly helmet compatable so if you like to pull something over your head on the lifts (and you wear a helmet) this might not be the best, but it's solid, pretty light, and goes great with a down sweater (see backcountry luft 800) for super cold days or a lighter fleece or merino for some warmer ski weather. pit zips are a must on all ski jackets i own and i like that these aren't huge and bulky, just big enough for some ventilation without feeling like you'll fly away in a gust of wind. the sleeve cuffs are pretty nice, but there's no pow skirt and the drawstring at the hem isn't the burliest i've had- it doesn't truly bother me but again, it's something to consider. size up for sure if you want to layer. hope this helps! PRAY FOR SNOW.

Quality

By:
August 13, 2009

I have to say that this jacket is extremely high quality. It is warm, great in the rain (I live in Seattle), quiet, and very comfortable. The size is right on for my marmot firefly fleece underneath, 5'7, 140 and I bought a medium. I got mine off of SAC but wouldn't hesitate to pay full is price. If you have been on the fence about this jacket, get off and buy it, you wont regret it.

I love the color. I got it in chocolate. I live in SE Alaska, rains all the time, and I haven't had any troubles yet! My only trouble was with the zipper, that broke about a month after I got it. But no worries - I got it fixed and would still recommend this jacket to any and everyone. Great feminine cut - fits true to size. However, if you want to layer, order up a size.

Im 5'9" and have troubles with womens clothing being too short. Is the length of this jacket shorter/longer or pretty standard?

The length on this jacket is a bit longer than standard. Many jackets when you lift your arms will rise up quite a bit. This one doesn't lift as much as most other jackets.

Hurricane Proof.

By:
September 7, 2009

Hurricane proof rain jacket. I camped in this jacket during a hurricane and it stayed dry the whole time. My only complaint is the stretchy part on the cuffs, my shirt underneath ended up with wet cuffs. The fit is great, it comes right below my hips. Great big hood, it should work well for ski season too.

Love Affair

Just received this jacket in time to use it on a Wind River trip. It didn't rain as much as I anticipated, but in the moments that it did rain, this jacket was Awesome! I love the feminine cut, it is very flattering. It is true to fit yet roomy enough to layer. I did layer my Backcounrty Down Sweater under it comfortably. It is a great addition to my jacket collection! I am in love...

Yes as Liz pointed out, hang dry it. You don't want to dry anything with heat (in the dryer) because it will ruin the waterproofing.

I spot cleaned this jacket with a bit of soap and water. From experience use a dry detergent to wash any waterproofing materials, then hang dry. Avoid fabric softners and liquid detergents because it breaks down the fabric. I use nikwax if I have killed my garments. http://www.nikwax.com/en-gb/products/productdetail.php?productid=4

You should be able to machine wash cold with mild detergent. There doesn't appear to be material in the jacket that will be ruined from washing it. And it does come equipped with a lifetime warranty, meaning it's built tough, and you could probably wash it and be just fine.

love this jacket. Lots of outdoor brands dont make their womens clothes to fit like women's clothes. They eyed up being kinda baggy and not flattering. This jacket looks so great though. It definitely fits like a female jacket. Also, the quality is amazing. Water bounces off of it and wind doesn't make it through either. Great jacket! It looks great, and it works great too!

Wow, what a well conceived and constructed jacket. just got it and have yet to wear it, but this weekend's rain and wind will be welcomed. looks like bombproof welded seams, solid fabric, good pocket placement. nice fit for my shape: 38" on top, 31" waistband. great color, zipper not white, more like taupe. really glad i bought it -- looking forward to nasty weather !

jacket construction is good. fit is nice. ended up ordering a med when my gf normally wears small and that seems to be right fit considering all the layering under neath.

maybe a powder skirt would of been nice for snow sports

How comparable is backcountry.com sizing to arc'teryx? Also, I is there another jacket comparable to the Stoic? I am in need of very versatile rain jacket, but want to be able to use it for any activity that may come my way.

i own arcteryx in medium (5'9 140) and backcountry in a medium. however, this jacket i exchanged for a large so i can layer with a light down sweater or fleece underneath. this was mostly because i felt like it was too short so if you're not tall this might not be an issue for you.

I don't own this specific jacket, but intend to purchase it soon. I do, however, own multiple backcountry.com jackets. I have found that all of their jackets are incredibly true to there measurement chart. I also am a huge fan of their feminine and figure flattering form.

Nice jacquet

By:
September 8, 2009

but does fit small so do orde a size up. I ordered a small and should ahve gotten a medium. Also, if you are ordering from Canada, once you've paid shipping, tarrifs, customs and exchange rate... not worth the money.You can get an arteryx cheaper at home

true to size

By: Backcountry.com Employee
September 24, 2009

Okay, so the colors are kinda bland for me, but the jacket fits super well. I am an XS and this jacket fits great in the sleeves and scoops a little lower in the butt so when I bend over the back doesn't ride up. The cut fits like a glove in the neck and blocks wind around my chin. Hood is awesome - not sure if I can fit my helmet yet. This jacket is perfect to pack because its light weight. No rain or slush gets through with the welded seams. The only thing I would like to see with this jacket is possibly a skirt and wrist gators for skiing. It would be an unstoppable shell with those features. Either or, I love it even if it is poop brown.
