The other day, I decided to head over to the Patagonia store to check out their new line of clothing for the season. I've been on the hunt for the perfect hardshell jacket for a while now. This year's Women's Triplet Jacket really grabbed my attention.
The Goretex Pro fabric with fully taped seams keep the harshest wet and cold weather out.
The fit of the jacket is a significant improvement from the previous year. The torso is longer with the back of the jacket slightly longer, which helps protect our lower mid section from being exposed to the elements. My biggest peeve are that most women's clothing are cut too short that when we move, bend over, raise our arms up, the jacket no longer covers parts of our mid section. Patagonia finally fixed that problem in this year's model.
The pockets are placed higher closer to the chest to allow the user to wear a harness for climbing and still access the pockets. Everything else is kept simple. Climbers don't need all the bells and whistles that are typical in some other fancy cold weather ski/ snowboard outfits.
Colors this season, are beautiful. The bright reddish pink jacket makes any girl stand out while outdoors.
This jacket is sold at Massey's Outfitters:
