Love it!!

Ranked #90 - Women's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
February 1, 2012
I got this jacket for Christmas and was skeptical at first, knowing how much it cost, and being pretty bonded with my EddieBauer First Ascent Peak XV. I live between Montreal and Ottawa, and I have worn this jacket almost every day for over 1 month, snow, wind, freezing rain, you name it; it is light and really comfortable; the hood is warm but unobtrusive whether on or off your head; the lining where the jacket meets your chin and neck is soft; I have worn this in temps of 0 to minus 25, centigrade; colder than that and I get out my FirstAscent. I am out trail hiking for 2-3 hours at a time and this jacket has won my heart for keeping me warm and dry and being light and super user friendly. It has won my heart, for sure! One request: an outside chest pocket for keys!
