Great for active sports

By veria101563931 Ranked #688 - Women's Softshell Jackets February 20, 2010

Jacket runs small. Sleeves are very fitted. I don't know why someone thought the sleeves were too long, I thought they were not long enough. I usually wear a small, ordered a large to get enough room for my long arms and athletic shoulders. But then I ended up with extra room around the waist and hips. Looks very stylish, but is NOT warm enough for alpine skiing. I wore it once for skiing, and got too many drafts down the front, and under the hem. Should be great for hiking or XC skiing though. Breathes nicely. I liked it so much I got one in Men's for my Dad. He LOVES it, and wears it all the time. The colors are beautiful, and even the light colors seem to resist dirt and stains. It washes up nicely. I'm planning on taking it for cool spring hikes in the Rockies and Jemez (NM) Mts. It is heavy for a soft shell, which is fine for day hikes. I am not sure I'd want to backpack with it since it has some bulk to it.
