I wore this under a shell and over long underwear and a light fleece on a 10-degrees-at-the-lift day. Everything wicked beautifully, and I was instantly awed by whatever magi…

I am 5'9" 182 lbs and usually wear a large. I might have been able to go with a medium here due to the "regular" cut of this jacket - "regular" at Patagonia sometimes means a…

I bought this jacket to replace my old soft shell for ice climbing. I'm usually on the cold side, hence I decided to go with a jacket that had a little built- in insulation. I…

I got this jacket in Tumeric. The color is absolutely beautiful, in my humble opinion. If the weather is 30F and above and you are moving its perfect. I'm just not convinced o…

I'm guilty of spoiling my little niece, Melissa. I gave this jacket it to her for her birthday. She is a doll and looks even sweeter in this jacket. Not only is it stylish,…

I had one of these for about a year. I'm 6'2" and 200 pounds and the large was a comfortable fit. There was enough room under it for a 100 weight fleece if it got down to abou…
