Patagonia Rubicon Rider Jacket - Women's
November 16, 2009
I tried this jacket on in a store and actually found it to have a more slim fit than I was expecting for a ski jacket. Though Backcountry says that the women's fit is "relaxed," the Patagonia website says that it has a "regular" fit which I think more accurately describes its fit. The men's jacket, which I just bought for my boyfriend, does indeed have a more relaxed fit. I like this jacket so much that I am planning on ordering it for myself, however I will stay with my standard medium, which I always go with in Patagonia tops. I would not recommend to size down in this jacket if you are usually a large.

Patagonia Rock Guide Pant - Women's
October 28, 2009
I'm looking for a good pant for xc skiing. Would these fit the bill or does Patagonia make a pant that would work better? I like the Patagonia Integral pants, but am unable to find them available anywhere.

Patagonia Capilene 4 Bottom - Women's
October 22, 2009
I've been wearing SmartWool as my primary baselayer for both upper and lower body. Recently, I've noticed small holes appearing in all of my SmartWool garments, which I recently saw someone on the boards attribute to machine drying the garments. I like my performance clothes, especially the baselayers, to be easy care for the most part, meaning I can wash and dry them without worry. I know that the Capilene is not wool, however I want to be sure not to have to worry about lots of runs through the washer and dryer damaging the clothes. Has anyone ever had any problem with this?
