You might get cold in the Sierras unless you are geared up in
the Women’s Virtuoso Down Jacket from Outdoor Research. The 650-fill
down holds body heat in so you stay nice and toasty, and you can seal
out cold air by cinching the dual hem drawcord and tightening the
hook-and-loop cuff tabs. The entire jacket compresses into one of the
hand pockets so you have a compact, packable jacket that doubles as a
down-filled pillow when sleepy time comes around.
I bought the 2008 version of this jacket from this site. It was a
fantastic jacket and kept me warm through 3 Wisconsin winters. I used
it as my daily commuting jacket and as my downhill skiing jacket on the
extra cold days. I am pretty cold natured but still have to leave this
jacket unzipped until it is below 20 or so degrees. Unfortunately, it
fell off of a coat hook at work and somebody opened the door on top of
it, ripping a hole in the sleeve. Wish I had a more epic tale than
that, but anyway, I called OR to see what I could do about all the down
falling out and one week later I am the proud owner of a brand new
version of my jacket! They completely stood behind their product. The
only charge was the cost of shipping my old jacket in to OR ($10). The
new version is lighter in weight and not as bulky, but seems just as
warm. The fabric is also softer. I like that it folds up into it's own
pocket and I like the new design of the hood which would still fit
around a helmet, but doesn't seem quite as big or look as goofy as the
old version. I was delighted with this coat before, and now it is even
better. I am also completely loyal to OR now that I have found their
customer service to be so fantastic.
