Description of GoLite Gamut Softshell Jacket - Women's:
GoLite set a benchmark with the 12-ounce, three-layer, waterproof breathable Women's Gamut Jacket, and it ended up winning Outside Magazine's Killer Value Award. Now you too can have the durability and weather protection of a heavyweight shell, without the heavyweight part. The key to the Gamut Jacket is the fully seam-taped Trinity waterproof breathable stretch fabric. GoLite make this women's jacket with no frills (because frills add weight), but they gave it the essentials: two zip hand pockets and an adjustable, articulated hood.
Bottom Line: When weight is paramount, you need nothing more and nothing less than the GoLite Gamut Jacket.
I'm 5'5" and 128 lbs and the M fit me best. The small was ok, but rather tight so I returned it for a M, which gives me enough room to but a thin baselayer underneath. I love the feel of the jacket-it's soft! Just wish it had pit zips.
Got the boysenberry in Med. I'm usually either a small or med, and this jacket was too small....couldn't put anything but a really thin layer underneath. Really liked the color, though.
