Not for cold weather

The North Face Denali Glove - Women's

The North Face Denali Glove - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 January 30, 2009

Not that warm at all, and the sewn on edging on one cuff started coming unravelled after only 3 wears. Also not wind or waterproof. More for fall, casual use... not a great piece of winter gear.

Eh. Trendy I guess, but not a great piece of gear.

The North Face Denali Fleece Jacket - Women's

The North Face Denali Fleece Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 January 26, 2009

I'm fully acknowledging that this is a trendy jacket... it's cute, it's popular, everyone's daughter wants one. Okay, that being said, I was actually looking for a layering fleece for fall/winter hiking and climbing, and I have to say the Denali is pretty much just eh. I could see wearing this jacket to school or running errands, but for actual outdoor sports, it seems like the North Face has put more emphasis on fashion than on function. It's absolutely not windproof, not that warm and pretty bulky at that. I'm sticking with my Mountain Hardwear windstopper lightweight fleece and windstopper soft shell. Both together feel less bulky than the Denali. The North Face is also charging quite a bit for what is basically a fashion piece!

Mountain Hardwear Arnina Jacket - Women's

LOVE IT. Seriously. I would live in this if I could. I bought the black XS, and it is amazing. Incredibly warm, totally windproof and an amazing fit. I'm a small woman... 5'3" and 110 lbs with a very small frame, and the XS is perfect... a nice, close fit but with enough room for a base layer and lightweight fleece. Awesomely warm for winter hiking and mountaineering, and I even wore it over a thermal base layer for a 5 mile road race in 20 degree temps.
