Description of Mountain Hardwear Epic Jacket - Women's: |
The Mountain Hardwear Women's Epic Jacket is an ultra-lightweight outer shell loaded with technical features to keep you warm and dry. Mountain Hardwear built the Epic with durable ripstop nylon coupled with soft, supple stretch nylon creating a soft feel for a waterproof jacket. As a stand-alone or as an extra layer, the Epic is a highly breathable barrier to the elements. The Epic has a one-handed darwcord hem, ergonomic hood, and brim drawcords so you can quickly cinch up when the weather turns ugly. You'll enjoy the Epic's uninhibited freedom of movement thanks to Mountain Hardwear's waterproof and remarkably comfortable stretch panel construction.
Bottom Line: The Mountain Hardwear Women's Epic Jacket takes outerwear to record proportions.

| I disagree with the previous poster. The fit of this jacket is not comfortable and the shape is strange. The armpits are too roomy so there's all this extra fabric bunching up, and the jacket isn't even t-shaped when you lay it down. (It's like this jacket was designed for someone whose armpit begins below the breast and goes to the elbow, if you can imagine.) Also, the pitzips are covered by a hard zipper cover, just like the brim. I found this very uncomfortable. Not to mention the purple on the website looks nice and dark but in actually resembles Easter purple. I will return this jacket. I've already gotten a Marmot PreCip which fits much better, doesn't have uncomfortable pitzips, and comes in better colors. |

| Best Rain Jacket I ever owned 12-08-06 |

| This jacket is fantastically designed. Mountain Hardwear thought of everything. The jacket is very lightweight. It has taped seams, mesh pockets, soft patch that goes against your face when zipped all the way up, cinches at the wrist and a stiffened brim so you can still see where you at going when you have the hood cinched down. |

| STRANGE FIT 02-04-08 |
Anonymous:  |
| I just received my Epic jacket and I am returning it immediately. The description of this jacket says nothing about the construction in the armpits. Zippers extending from the elbow to mid-torso make for a very uncomfortable fit. Two other reviewers were right. Color (Crimson) was great, though! |
