Like everybody else, I love this jacket. Very weatherproof, a light rain runs right off it. Fantastic hood. Unlike most women's coats, it actually fits real women; long enough in the arms to actually move them, big enough to wear layers under it (yes it does run a little big), long enough to keep your butt warm, enough room in the arms and shoulders. And it really fits like a women's coat, not a man's. Also unlike most women's coats, it is actually warm! Very warm! No sewn thru seams or cold spots. Yes it's not the lightest thing out there, but it's pretty light and for the price it's pretty high performance. Wait for a sale and you will have a great value in an all purpose winter garment.

Warm, abrasion resistant, a little bit wind resistant, really comfy. It is not the lightest thing, but it is way more wind resistant and durable than similar polarfleece items, so the trade off may be worth it to you. I'm really glad I got it, I will be using it a lot!

I found that these pants pulled in the butt when I stepped up, not good for hiking! Too bad, because they have lots of nice features, (side zips, etc) and are lightweight. I had to return them because of the poor fit. If you are very thin and have small hips they might work for you.

Yes, it's more breathable than the "big G", but IMO all rain gear should have pit zips. If it's warm enough to rain, then you are going to want to cool off at some point, preferably while not having the rain dumping down your chest, and not having to take your raincoat off to remove layers, which is what pit zips are for! Not being able to dump extra heat without letting water in greatly limits this jackets versatility. However, in every other way I love it so much that I am going to keep it and add pit zips to it myself. Very nice cut, lightweight, great hood, and about as breathable as raingear is likely to get and still be waterproof. If it had pit zips and a 2-way zipper in front I'd give it 5 stars. Too bad they don't make the Latok jacket in a women's cut, but then the lighter weight of the Alpine Latok is nice. On sale it's a great deal.

Good but not perfect; I like the cut, fabric, and color, but it should have pit zips, a way to roll up and stow the hood, and a 2-way zipper in the front. Also sleeve cuffs that open so you can adjust or roll up the sleeves. Not worth the full price, but on sale I'm glad I bought it, I use it quite a bit and it does have a pretty wide comfort range.

It's just a neck gaitor, but it is a very nice and warm one, high quality fleece that doesn't pill. Does the job!

This coat is for staying warm in everyday winter life. A bit heavy for mountaineering or skiing, but lighter than most other around town coats, and it is stuff-able if you had to stow it somewhere. Great for traveling. Hood does not come off, but this has not bothered me because if it's cold enough for this coat then you want the hood. Unfortunately it does not have an internal waist drawcord, just one at the bottom, (which comes down long enough to cover your butt). A bit expensive at full price, but a great deal if you get it on sale. You won't be cold!

This bag is light, well made, and WARM! And roomy, and packable, what more could you want? True bag heaven...

This jacket is way overpriced, and the pockets in front are big, floppy, and don't stay closed very well, I would not put anything in them I was afraid to lose. Only about half of it is actually wool, the rest is just a thin fleece fabric. It is a nice cut, but quite heavy for the amount of warmth. I returned it.

I ended up getting a size bigger than normal in order to be able to wear more than a shirt under it. NO SNOW so I haven't used it skiing yet, but it looks like it will be good.
