Swix Mayen Quilted Jacket - Women's Sand, XL

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I grabbed the Mayen Quilted Jacket for a day of Nordic skiing when the temps were hovering just below freezing, and it hit the right balance between warmth and mobility. The quilted insulation kept my core comfortable at the start of the day, and the stretch panels never once got in the way of my stride."When the cold sets in and the Nordic track is calling, you want a jacket that is warm enough to handle the chill at the trailhead but moves well enough to keep up once you find your rhythm. The Mayen Quilted Jacket threads that needle, wrapping a quilted 100g synthetic insulated shell around a DWR-coated nylon exterior that handles wind and light moisture without adding bulk or stiffness to your kit. Polyester-spandex stretch panels under the arms and across the back give you real freedom of movement through every stride, pole plant, and kick, so the jacket works with your body rather than against it. An internal media pocket keeps your phone or device insulated from the cold, and a zippered back pocket gives you a secure spot to stash a snack or a spare layer for the long haul. Whether you are lapping a groomed trail or bushwhacking through fresh snow, the Mayen Quilted Jacket is light enough to forget you are wearing it and warm enough to remind you why you brought it.
