Stoic eVent Stash Shell - Women's
Waaaaay to small

Unless you're as skinny as a rail and possess no muscle tone, don't buy this jacket.
I'm 5'2" and fairly muscular and even the x-large doesn't fit my arms, even with just a T-shirt on. I have a hard time even zipping it up. I wear a large in the North Face line for a reference. When are outdoor clothing companies going to recognize that all athletic women are not tall and skinny?
I won't slam the technology. The jacket seems very sturdy and light. I commend backcountry.com for it's attempt to design it's own product but this fit is really terrible.
Sadly, I'll be sending it back.
