Women's Symmetry II Jacket
keeps me warm and dry. what more could i ask for?
Nice Jacket
This is a nice jacket. The only complaint I have is it needs to have inside pockets. I have long arms and have trouble with women's clothing. The sleeves are long enough. It is very windproof. Haven't used it cross country skiing yet, but it should work great. The price on sale was a plus.
Nice Jacket
The outer material is very good quality. The inner fleece has little holes all over it which gives it a scratchy feel on bare skin, just wear a long sleeve shirt underneath this jacket. I would have liked it for fall/winter outdoor activities in the PNW. However, it was far too long in the arms and too large in the shoulders for my body so I had to return it. I am 5'7" with an average build, the jacket fit perfectly in my chest and hip area.
Great Jacket for Trail Running
I received this jacket for Christmas and have used it a few times since then. One day was a 0 degree day with wind and snow. The jacket felt so light when I first got it, I was wondering if it would be warm enough. Sure enough, I was very warm on a 0 degree day with some layers. In fact, I was almost too warm. I haven't tested the water resistance of this jacket yet. The only downside is that when I first got the jacket, I reached into the little shoulder pocket and the seam instantly tore through, so now I can't use that pocket due to that seam totally ripping out.
This jacket gets top marks
I had a much earlier version (15 years ago) of this jacket, but the wristbands were too tight to check my watch and the waistband was a little too cinched up, but the weight of the jacket and the fabrics always made me think it was a good product. So, I recently checked the website to see what's available now and ended up ordering the Symmetry II after seeing that the wrists have been updated to an adjustable Velcro and the waist is cut straight down. I am NOT disappointed. This jacket checks every box. I can wear it with a heavier layer (like today when we had 30 degrees w/ 30 mph winds) or with a lighter layer when it's not so cold and the jacket just does what it's supposed to do. It cuts through the wind and keeps me warm with vents that air it out a bit. I just can't say enough. If I had more than two thumbs, I'd give it all the thumbs up!
Excellent Quality
Excellent quality at a great price. Runs a little small, so I was glad I ordered the large size.
Great jacket and experience.
I called the company to get information on sizing on this jacket. The women I spoke to was very helpful and new the correct answers. I didn't want to order the wrong size and have to return it then reorder. I then ordered the size she told me and it arrived two days later. It fits perfectly and I love it. Will get good use this summer on our trip to Alaska.
Superior Jacket
This jacket did not disappoint..... like all the other Sporthill products that I own and have given as gifts to friends. It is easy to wear and provides the ultimate protection from wind and the wet elements. I am sworn to buying only Sporthill when looking to improve my outdoor gear. If you take good care of them, they last for years! Cold wash and air dry (which is quick) and you're good to go. Keep new products coming our way. THANK YOU!!!!!
Fantastic Jacket !!
Like all Sporthill products, this jacket does NOT disappoint. Sizing is great. Product quality is fantastic. This is the PERFECT winter running jacket for Oregon's weather. I started out with just a long-sleeved shirt underneath, and though the temps ranged from 41º to 53º during my workout, I was completely comfortable throughout. In even colder temps, I can wear a slightly heavier shirt underneath and will still be comfortable. Exceptionally well made, great design, and all that you could ever hope for in a outdoor/ exercise clothing purchase.
Solid jacket for winter running
It seems impossible but this wind-breaker style jacket really does the job of a heavier layer without the bulk. On a run in 4 degrees, I wore one base layer turtleneck and this jacket on top and was warm enough but not overheating. I'm taller and have broad shoulders; usually I'd take a large but for this style I went with an XL.
