Stoic Vaporshell Jacket - Women's Light Jade/Dark Jade, S Review
This waterproof shell comes in great colors that show up well in photos. I really love how fitted it is so that you can wear this and not feel like a giant lump - the way it tapers is very flattering. The bottom of the jacket comes down slightly past my hip bone. The negative about it being so well fitted is that this is not a jacket that is big enough to fit heavy layers under, so it's more of a spring and fall jacket. The most I can fit under this jacket is a light fleece, and even then it's a little tight.
Functionally, the taped seams make it so this jacket is very waterproof - you can see all the ratings at backcountry.com. I am always dry, even in downpours. The hood is perfectly fitted and shaped so that it stays on. One of my biggest gripes with rain jackets is a hood not designed to stay on with a ponytail. This hood is so deep you could wear your hair in a bun and it would still stay on if you zipped the jacket up all the way! It even has a bit of a brim which is great because the worst part about hiking in the rain, besides soggy feet, is constant rain dripping down your face. The brim on this jacket mostly prevents that from happening. This jacket has lasted through at least 4 backpacking trips and a year around town so far without any malfunctions. For backpacking and hiking, the pit zips are a must - without them open the jacket is not super breathable.
There are two tiny complaints I have about this jacket are:
1. Only one pocket (you can see it in the photo in the front). I knew what I was getting myself into before I bought it so it wasn't a surprise, and I decided to go for it because I use this backpacking a lot where I don't need side pockets. However when I wear this around the city it is a little annoying not to have the side pockets. Then again, if you're wearing it around the city you probably have a purse so there you go.
2. The material is a bit rough. I think it is just the price you pay for getting something that is durable and tough. It's not uncomfortable, just not as soft and smooth as I'd like. But it's worth it for the durability and dryness that it offers.
Overall, a great functional & attractive waterproof shell!
Note: When I bought this jacket on Amazon last year, it was $51.60. You may be able to find a better price if you shop around a bit.
