It wasn't love at first sight. I missed the easy feeling of my fleece jackets. But after a month I really appreciate the light weight warmth and the sleek lines. I wore it to the opera Sunday. I needed it for the chilly San Francisco wind. Once in the opera house I rolled it up and put it under my seat. On the way back to the car I had my jacket and I was cozy. It looks good and feels good and it keeps me warm. What more can a jacket do?
ProsDurable, Great Value, Comfortable, Performing as Expected
Was looking for a jacket that would keep me warm, protect from light rain & be lightweight....thankfully, I found all my "wants" in the Pathfinder Soft-Shell Jacket! Being a plus-size gal, it's often a challenge to find the correct fit in clothing. However, this jacket fits like a dream & is SOOO comfy!! Love the zip-up pockets so I don't lose my gloves or cell phone.
My only suggested improvement would be to offer this jacket with a removeable fleece-lined hood, (similar to the jacket's interior). Otherwise, this is already my favorite & perfect winter jacket, while being lightweight enough to work during chilly autumn & spring weather!!
Also, I tend to pour over product reviews prior to making a purchase like this & want to thank those who took time to share their thoughts & experiences for this & other products - it's always helpful to me in the decision-making process!!
Just received my Pathfinder Jacket in the mail, which shipped very fast. I have had the chance to wear the jacket over the course of the week and it is an excellent windbreaker while keeping me warm. Additionally, the cuffs have an extra fleece layer to beat any breeze coming up the sleeve. I purchased a Women's size in the jacket and had some concerns that I would be swimming in a less-than tailored (thus unflattering) coat. Not the case! It looks great and I feel incredibly comfortable in it.
This is a terrific jacket! It is beautifully made, true to size and fits great. I know when the weather gets cooler that this will get a lot of use in Buffalo! I love the bright pink color with the darker pink accents.
