Sierra Designs Women's Microlight Jacket

Good little jacket!
May 12, 2012

It is a compact & nice jacket. I love the color and lightness of it. This is good to pack in your luggage when you go on the spring or summer trip. So far, it is a good wind blocking, light rain repelling jacket.

great light weight packable item

I am a tech clothing gear head. Bought this for the price and color for a San Miguel de Allende trip with no hiking involved, but in case the weather turned from hot to rainy- and it did. Worked well, in a short downpour kept me dry without turning into a sauna coat. Great little item for the price, weight and stylish color. Maybe not for the great wet Alaskan outdoors but perfect for the purpose for which I bought it.

Love this jacket! what a steal, Bought this for my summer trip to Ireland and Im very excited to use it. I has a small bag that you can fold it up into and its very convient because I have to pack light.

GREAT QUALITY BUY FOR PRICE!
March 31, 2012

I bought this jacket for my daughter. She is very particular about her clothing and she loves the fit, water repellent level and the wind resistance it provides. The color is great and she is very pleased with it overall. The price was super in comparison to other products she found like it. We would highly recommend the jacket to friends.

Awesome quality lightweight jacket!!

Even though I returned this jacket because I wanted something that was more "fitting" I suppose, the actual fit IS great, and I really like that the cuffs are elastic. Awesome array of color choices too.

Love this Jacket
March 07, 2012

I recently purchased the Sierra Designs Women's Microlight Jacket in an Extra Small and in the blue. I must say I absolutely LOVE IT! It fits perfectly and I am 5"1 and 3/4 and a true petite so finding the perfect fit is almost impossible. This Jacket also is so light weight I once forgot I had it on, lol:) It is breathable and waterproof and that is exactly what I needed. It it small enough to fit in your pocket, but it does come with a waterproof sac that clips onto the outside pocket. Another Feature worth the purchase are the two inside pockets, so my phone and other personal belongings stay dry on rainy days. I recommend this jacket to anyone who wants something light wight and not bulky! Perfect Purchase!!!

My order arrived quickly. I love the color and the fit is great. It is exactly what I was looking for. Will be a great light weight jacket to bring to Europe.

This rain jacket is awesome I love it!! It fits great, easy to carry around because it is super light, it comes with a carry bag and i love the color.

Great rain jacket for the money

This jacket is excellent value! It packs really small, weighs nothing and protects against wind and rain. Took it out on a hike and was very pleased witht the performance. I would highly recommend this product.

Packable Lightweight Jacket
April 15, 2011

I purchased this jacket for a trip to Europe and it turned out to be everything I was looking for - lightweight, packable, and windproof. This jacket really came through when we got caught unexpectedly in a windy, downpour in Paris. It took up no room at all in my day pack and was much more convenient than an umbrella. I especially liked the adjustable waist drawcord for keeping out the wind.

Great light weight rain jacket
April 08, 2011

I got this rain jacket for a backpacking trip, so I wanted something very light weight. It is super light, but still good quality. It's comfortable and I like wearing it. I am about 5'5" and 128lbs and a Medium fit perfectly with room for layers underneath. I'm very happy with the jacket, expecially for the price.

Meh...
March 08, 2011

Looks & feels like it would work in a pinch. Definitely lightweight and easily packable. Zipper stuck in several places. The shape is kind of big and boxy - not very feminine. Might have kept it as a back up if it were half the price.

I purchased this jacket for my daughter on sale. Received a different color and jacket in error. I had to return it. Altec quickly sent the correct order. My daughter would recommend it to others.

Very nice jacket, unfortunately had to return it for a larger size. I bought this for my wife and the cinder color looked like a beautiful brown, in reality it is a greenish brown, not bad, but not exactly as pictured. Going with black next.

Love it
July 13, 2010

I'm 5'7 with an average build and long arms and I ordered the medium. It fits perfect. As other reviewers have stated, it doesn't breathe super well but I love the pouch. The jacket easily fits in a purse or backpack.

Fits well and looks great

Well made, attractive and the right price. I love this jacket!

Great rain jacket
May 26, 2010

Fits well, looks good, very easy to pack and perfectly rain proof. Just got it a couple weeks ago and have already used it a lot. I like it so much and it's so easy to pack that I've found myself bringing it along even when there's only a slight chance of rain.

Gets the job done
May 10, 2010

If you're looking for a rain coat simply to keep you dry without anything extra this is it. I got this for college to wear to class on rainy days and it's perfect. It stows in a tiny bag when you don't need and keeps you nice and dry when you do need to pull it out. But if you're looking for a multi-purpose everyday kind of coat, this isn't it. It is better for layering because it's just a shell and it doesn't breath too well. But overall, a great coat for travel or just for rain!

Great for the price.

Jacket great for the price. True to size.

perfect shell
March 17, 2010

I needed a light rain jacket to wear over my regular jacket or clothing and this was perfect. I was looking at different shells and I liked this one the best because it had elastic around the wrists and I needed something that I could wear while using my hands without it getting in the way. Perfect for what I was looking for.

Excellent value, well made, really cute too!
January 19, 2010

I was delighted with my purchase. I believe it is true to size and description. The item is well made an attractive.

perfect for college student
January 02, 2010

My college student daughter wanted something to carry with her to class to wear over fleece for wind and rain. She loves this jacket...bought it in two colors.

nice jacket
December 21, 2009

very lightweight, packable and easy to layer underneath. Purchased the coat for my mom--she thinks the sizes run small...

perfect for rainy weather
November 28, 2009

Really light and easy to wear and carry. Love the green earthy color. Perfect for Washington rain.

great jacket!
August 24, 2009

Packs up small. Perfect for summer hiking.

Great for light rain
August 19, 2009

Great, light jacket for unexpected wet weather. I use when biking, running, hiking, etc. Packs down light. I wear another one for around town to work because I don't want to wear the one I sweat in. Downfall for this one is that there are NO pitzips. I wish it had it for when I go running. Maybe I'll make my own :)

expensive for just a rain coat
July 21, 2009

Its nice, it does what its suppose to. I feel that $50 for a rain coat is way overpriced. But I needed one, what can you do. - I like that I can roll it into a bag and throw it in my purse.

Perfect for its purpose
July 12, 2009

This light weight, easy to pack rain/wind jacket was very handy on our trip. Great color, perfect for rain and winds. Only area that I'd like to see changed is the way the hood fits - not flexible to size and latch doesn't hold well. Otherwise, loved it.

Great rain jacket/windbreaker
July 01, 2009

This jacket meets my expectations for a rain jacket/windbreaker. I usually wear a S or M top and bought this jacket in a M due to previous reviews. It fit perfect (and I have long arms). I am happy with this jacket. It fits well and folds up into a handy little bag which makes it easy when traveling. I have yet to wear it in the rain, but it works well as a windbreaker.

Perfect for the Need
May 12, 2009

this doubles as a windbreaker and rain slicker. It doesn't SOUND loud every time you move like some of the outdoor fabrics these days! fit is 'forgiving' ie near flattering. Can use for a night out in the City or weekend camping in the boonies compact for travel too.

Awesome rain jacket
March 09, 2009

It works for the rainy season in SF where I live. With the light weight, it's very convenient to keep in my purse or backpack. Easy to dry out and you will never get wet in the soaking rain wearing this jacket!! I bought it size M (normally I wear size S), it is perfectly fit me;)

Runs a tiny bit small
January 17, 2009

Nice jacket, attractive design, but runs a bit small. I usually wear an extra small or small in shirts, and since this is a shell I obviously planned to layer it over a fleece jacket or other similar layer. It's cut just a little tight in the shoulders, and the sleeves are just a little short for comfortable layering. I would have returned it for a medium, but they were sold out.
