Outdoor Ventures Womens Softshell Jacket with Hood Fleece Lined Warm Lightweight Waterproof Insulated Windbreaker

As an Arizonan, I rarely find myself needing a jacket. But, we took a trip to Iceland, and I needed an affordable, and functional jacket for this trip. I couldn't be more pleased! First off, this jacket looks great. I think it looks as good as the name brand ones everyone else was wearing in Iceland. The fit was very good. I have broad shoulders, and very plump arms, and I was able to wear this comfortably, but the arms were not voluminous. The banding on the wrists kept out rain very well. It went through cold weather and rain like a champ. The fleece inside kept me warm and the outside slicked off the water. It felt lighter when days warmed up and I just unzipped it. I am so glad I did not shell out a lot of money for a fancy name brand. This was a PERFECT jacket for our trip, and it'll be waiting in my wardrobe for another trip where it might get cold or rain!

I ended up returning it because I didn’t realize I already had a jacket similar but I was so close to keeping both! The quality is great it is the perfect hiking jacket. Wind and rain resistent, adjustable, multiple pockets, and a hood. Not to mention it comes in a variety of sizes and fun colors. It is lightweight with a fleece lining for warmth and if you don’t get it snug fitting there’s room for layers for those sunrise hikes before the heat kicks in. Great product for the price.

This was a great, medium weight jacket that is very attractive and has a nice pastel blue color. We got this for a winter jacket for my daughter in the southeast where it does not get overly cold for long in the winter. I like that this coat has an outer shell that acts as a wind breaker and is softly lined with a fleece interior. My daughter is 170 lbs, 5’ 3 and we got her an XL. It fits her perfectly. The jacket tag notes it is washable, however we have not tested this. It does appear that it would wash nice just given the quality of the materials used. It seems like a well-made and constructed jacket. I would recommend this jacket for teens and adults as it exceeded my expectations for comfort, attractiveness and quality. It was also sold at a great price! Read more

Bought after looking for a coat with similar features to one my son bought at a much higher price point. This coat is terrific! I live in FL and often need an in between weight coat. This does the job. The bigger surprise was that I was warm in it when I traveled for 3 weeks in January to the northern Great Lakes area. Two weeks of temps below 10 and I never needed any other outerwear. This was warm, repelled the snow and moisture and stopped the wind. Far exceeded my expectations. I love the color ( dark red). It's closer to a maroon. Fits true to size. Read more

This is a cozy coat and has lots of pockets. I needed a coat to replace my other spring jacket and loved the color. Sizing was tricky for me because I tried on a medium and large, and I'm in-between. The medium fits to size, but becomes bulky if layering with a sweatshirt. Large is large, but perfect if to layer. This will be my go-to when I'm not ready for the puffer jacket yet! Read more

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this jacket. I bought it for a fall trip to Ireland and it was perfect. I sized up and was glad I did for layering purposes. Waterproof, wind proof, warm, roomy, plenty of pockets, normal sized hood that covered my head. It folded up nicely and fit at the bottom of my backpack. And it was $100 cheaper than buying a well known name brand but just as well made! I highly highly recommend. I bought my husband the men’s version of the same jacket and he loves his, too! I took a risk on the purple because I’m more of a black/gray kind of gal, but the purple is muted. Not bright. Just right! Read more

Very pleased with this jacket. I bought it for hiking/walking in mountains western North Carolina in fall/winter. Im 5'5 140 lbs and would normally wear a medium, but sized up to leave room for layering. Very glad I did. I can wear a fleece jacket under in 30-40F temps with wind/rain and be very toasty warm. Note the jacket alone wouldn't be warm enough for me in those temps. Can wear weighted vest either under or over it. Lightweight/packable enough to fit in a backpack when/if the day warms up. Roomy zip pockets, waterproof, great hood that can be tightened down and will accommodate a hat under it. Teal color is very nice. This was a good find. Read more

Warm, comfortable jacket with easy to zip zipper. I took this on a trip to Alaska in late August with temps in the high 40's with wind and rain. I wore a zip up fleece jacket under it and it kept me warm and dry. I am 5"8" and weigh 150 lbs. and I bought a size XL so that I could layer it. The hood is deep and covers my head while still allowing me to see well. Now that I'm home, I'm using it at night to walk the dogs without layering it with temps in the high 50s. I can easily zip it while walking and the light blue is visible in the dark. I worried that the light color would show dirt but it does not. The side pockets zip and my gloves and hat fit inside them. The two inside pockets are deep and great for my phone. Excellent quality jacket and meets all my needs. Read more
