Combining the unique performance properties of merino wool with trusted outdoor technologies, the Ortovox Merino Windbreaker Jacket will keep you comfortably shielded from the wind on blustery hikes and climbs. Its durable yet ultralight fabric is made with a blend of merino wool and nylon, which delivers reliable windproof performance in alpine environments while maintaining a comfortable internal climate, a soft next-to-skin feel, and moisture-wicking performance as you sweat on steep ascents and rugged climbs. A DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating provides water-resistant protection against light rain when you're out in grey and drizzly weather, and the snug elastic hood, cuffs, and hem ensure that you've got total coverage from chilly winds. Plus, when blue skies and gentle breezes return you can stuff the entire jacket into its own chest pocket and keep it in your pack until howling mountain winds find you again.

Nice Jacket, strange fit in armholes
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- L
- Height:
- 5' 7"
- Weight:
- 150
Feels like excellent quality out of the box. I got the Large (5'7", 150 lbs) and the fit isn't perfect, the armholes/armpit area is really constricting. At first I thought it was tight across the chest which surprised me because I'm not large chested but after wearing it while driving I realized it was bunching up under my armpits and it seems the arm holes just aren't positioned in the proper place, or they're not deep enough, making for a sweaty and uncomfortable experience. (If you look closely at the two pictures in the reviews from the women on Ortovox's team, you can see the bunching (armpit wedgie?) in their armpits also, so its not just me) Too bad, I love the feel of the fabric and the warmth to weight ratio.. I like the idea of a super warm and packable outer layer, but I don't if I'll be able to get over the weird fit.
