Great Against Wind and Water

By Nathan C. Ranked #448 - Women's Ski Jackets April 6, 2009

This review is based on the medium size. The center-back is 27.5 inches long. The length of the front main zipper is 26 inches so it is longer in back than in front which made it good for sitting down because it did not ride up and helped keep the weather out while climbing and scrabbling. The sleeve length is 32 inches which is longer than a normal medium but great for tall women. The medium fits a tall size 8 perfectly. It is an athletic fit with room for a fleece underneath. The hood fits well, covers nicely, and stayed on with the heavy wind and snow. As an everyday jacket or a travel jacket it would be better with hip pockets, but it is design to use with a backpack. It kept out heavy wind, snow, and sleet with ease. The water beaded and just slid off. Lastly please remember it is just a shell, there is no insulation.
