Amazing first light hoody - Black Diamond First Light Hooded Alpine Jackets - Women's

Love, love my First Light Hoody. I selected this jacket after doing extensive research looking for the perfect mid-layer for downhill skiing. In my area, the temps often range from above freezing (hello spring skiing) to -35C. I needed a layer that would provide warmth, be comfortable and breathable. The First Light Hoodie delivers. Great fit, with plenty of length in the sleeves and shoulders to move during active sports. Long enough in the body to avoid the cold lower back when you lift your arms. Nice sized hood (not ski helmet sized), easy to pull up and cozy. The hood also folds in 1/2 nicely to create an extra warm layer on the back of your neck for cold days...I wear it under another ski jacket. And it zips up over my base layer and neck-warmer without being tight. Size small fits well - 5'7.5", 115lb, with room for some light layers underneath, without looking bulky. Oder resistant, and airs out easily overnight. Highly recommend, would buy another one.
