Patagonia Rain Shadow Jacket - Women's

Item #PAT1522 | 59 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Nice jacket, but poor fit for me...

By Ranked #434 - Women's Rain Jackets October 27, 2009

This is a really well made jacket--typical of Patagonia quality. I really wanted it to work, but the sizing was just off for me. I ordered a small, which is my normal size, but this jacket swallowed me. I am 5'4" and 105 lbs. Even with layers underneath it was big. When zipped up, it covered my face all the way to my nose. I sent it back and decided to try the XS. Well unfortunately it was a bit small. If the sizing works for you, it would be a nice jacket. If not, I would recommend the Arcteryx Beta SL and the Mountain Hardwear Epic.
