Outdoor Research Alibi Softshell Jacket - Women's

No lie...lovin' my Alibi!!

By Ranked #215 - Women's Softshell Jackets February 9, 2011

The Alibi has really delivered for me this ice/alpine climbing season. I have stayed warm and dry in the craziest of conditions. This softshell sheds water and breathes so I stay dry inside. The bells and whistles are pretty cool: thumb gaiters that close the gap that can form between a jacket sleeve and your glove and a secret, attached helmet liner that when not in use stores neatly in neck area of jacket. However...my favorite feature...and this is so simple...is the small zip pocket on the upper left side of jacket. I store a pair of hand warmers, lip balm, a readily available snack. Most jackets only have lower pockets that become unavailable when I am wearing a climbing harness. I am psyched OR included the pocket on the Alibi. I have climbed thirty days in this jacket, washed it and it still looks brand new. I wear a medium and find the Alibi is true to size with plenty of room for layers.
