I LOVE it!

Ranked #77 - Women's Jackets
November 28, 2008
I love this jacket. I bought the backcountry.com wool jacket last year and absolutely love that one. The Siphon is cut more or less the same (this one's a tad shorter in the back than the wool).
For a jacket that's almost paper-thin, it keeps me very warm. It's also super packable, so I can shove it in my backpack and put it on when it starts raining.
The bonus is the fabric - I was walking the other day from brunch, and I got splattered by a bird and it wiped right off!
The sizing is probably slightly smaller than true, but I love how it fits me, it's very fitted and I get compliments every time I wear it. People recognize the quality even if they may not recognize the goat - at least not just yet!
I absolutely love both my backcountry.com jackets, I alternate just so I won't neglect one!
