Ibex Starr Hybrid Softshell/Merino Jacket - Women's

To keep you as comfortable as possible this winter, you'll find Ibex's Climawool Lite Softshell material on the back, chest, and outward-facing sleeves of its Starr Hybrid Jacket. Ibex hasn't forgotten about warmth either; it included merino felted fleece under the arms, side chest, and interior of this jacket. The Star is highly breathable and water- and wind-resistant, so it can stand up to some harsh winter conditions. An adjustable belt rides the waist to add some class to this semi-fitted top that layers well.

Bottom Line: Ibex added some durable qualities to its warm merino wool in order to create the Women's Starr Hybrid Jacket.

So close, but not quite...!

I was both happy and a little disappointed by this jacket. Good points: Well styled, true fit/sizing, looks nice on, good length, hand warmer pockets are cozy, fleecy colar lining is cozy, little belt looks cute. Bad points: The marino panels are only on the inner sleeve and side of body, all other panels are a very thin softshell fabric with no lining - the whole back panel is really thin and very cold if you're in the wind or really chilly conditions. Seems strange when our backs are one of the most vunerable parts in cold conditions...I ended up sewing in an extra layer of micro-fleece fabric to the inside of the back panel to give it some extra warmth and now it's wearable - so unless you are looking for a jacket with a thin back panel (maybe for cycling or walking with a pack on so you dont get a hot back??) or you are happy to do some sewing then don't bother with this one. Also - the hand cuffs are REALLY tight, I've got skinny little wrists and small hands and they leave red marks on my wrists after a while! Advice to Ibex - continue the thick marino fabric over the whole back panel and make the wrists a little wider, and then this jacket would be a real Starr!
