Zip up the Patagonia Women's Light Smoke Flash Jacket when you need a jacket that can handle pre-work dawn patrols, chill days on the groomers, and weekend ski tours with equal durability, protection, and comfort. This lightweight, breathable softshell/hard-shell ski jacket features a stretch-woven recycled polyester shell with welded seams and waterproof reinforcements on the shoulders and arms to protect you from the elements while staying breathable and mobile. Clip the adjustable powder skirt to your Patagonia ski pants when you're throwing up white smoke, and open up the large Underarm zips when the sun beats down. This jacket can be recycled through Patagonia's Common Threads Recycling Program.

Bottom Line: Move fast and stay light in the Light Smoke.

Versatile jacket

I have worn this jacket on a hike in winter conditions and many times skiing. While it is just a shell, it is cut roomy enough to layer a fleece or down sweater underneath. The many pockets are fantastic. I have carried a water bottle, 2 pair of goggles, iPod, phone, food... If you are a parent you always need more pockets. The pit zips are great. Love the soft fleece on the collar. I have not worn the coat in a downpour so cannot speak to that. It is extremely water repellent. The thicker material on shoulders is great when wearing a pack or carrying skis. The only drawbacks I can think of is that the material not terribly windproof (solved by wearing appropriate layers underneath). Also, I would prefer a slightly longer cut. This falls at the top of my hips and as have a short torso and wide hips, wearing insulated ski pants makes for a snug fit. Also, I would prefer that the powder skirt is removable. It adds unnecessary bulk at the waist as is. Otherwise this is a very versatile and practical coat for cold weather sports or around town. Enjoy.
