Patagonia Stretch Element Jacket - Women's

What if you could combine the flexibility and breathability of your favorite softshell with the three-layer, waterproof breathable fabric in a hardshell? Welcome to the Patagonia Women’s Stretch Element Jacket. The nylon fabric in this jacket is stretchy, soft, and uses a waterproof barrier to repel the wet, while the stitch-free, flexible-tape construction reduces weight and helps keep seams dry. Underarm zips dump heat on your alpine climbs, ice climbs, and backcountry ski treks, the helmet-compatible hood adds a layer of protection when the storms roll in, and reinforced shoulders and sleeves adds durability. Patagonia topped this technical jacket off with DWR-coated zippers and a hem drawcord.

Bottom Line: Comfortable and dry in your Element.

It will keep you fairly dry, you will want a hardshell jacket for complete waterproofing.

I love when it's cold enough to where this jacket!!

This is the best jacket I've ever purchased. It works flawlessly against rain/snow and wind. I live in Michigan and the winters are brutal, but I'm always nice and toasty. Sometimes when I walk to school or work I even work up a sweat. At night, or when it's below 25 degrees I usually throw a fleece on underneath for a little extra warmth (I suggest the Patagonia R3). There's plenty of room. (I'm 5'7" and 150 and I got a medium.) It also has a very nice feminine fit and it's unnecessarily baggy so I don't feel like I pulled on my boyfriend's ski jacket by accident. The hood is completely adjustable which is great. My only complaint in that the top of the zipper sticks up and rubs against my chin sometimes.

I know it's pricey, but if you're cold by nature or spend a lot of time out in the cold, it's worth every penny. TRUST ME!!
