Wife Loves It!

By Andrew Brandt Ranked #1157 - Women's Fleece Jackets October 26, 2009

My wife has been needing a casual outerlayer and/or about-the-house hoodie and would have settled for a cotton "whatever", but loved her Backcountry.com Siphon Primaloft jacket so much this seemed a far better idea. I advised her about the no hood sinch and no zippers on the pockets--which didn't concern her. Now one week into ownership I think she's worn it every day! The Polartec Power Stretch isn't high loft by any means, but she says the inside is soft and comfy and makes it a good layering piece as well. She has worn it around the house over a normal shirt, and over merino/under her shell for walks in upper 30's lower 40's weather. She's about 5'6" and just under 120 (hope that doesn't get me in trouble or something) and the Small fits perfectly. The hand pockets fit for her when her hands are balled up, though the horizontal cut of the pockets makes stashing anything them not the best idea. We can't comment on the green, but she really likes the purple. Full price wouldn't out of line, but if it's still a % off snatch it up! (Ladies already know how to bargain hunt, but guys, just take a guess at her size and reap the surprise gift rewards!)
