User Review: Moonstone Sauvage Jacket

Reviewed January 13, 1999 by Miguel Tejada-Flores

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Fabric: Cordura and Ripstop; 3 Layer Gore-Tex
Price Paid: $399 'list' (or lower)

A really NICELY-MADE parka. Someone once said 'the Devil is in the Details' -- and the details in this parka (as well as the detailing) are excellent. High level of craftsmanship, stitching, fabric use. Design is simple, functional, aesthetic. Pocket placement -- 4 exterior pockets, two of which are outside 'hand-warmer' style, the other two close to the front zipper -- as well as two zip-close interior pockets -- is excellent and generous. Fabric is tough but comfortable.

I've used it in rain downpours (which we get a lot of in Oregon) and alpine skiing (over other layers, where it kept me surprisingly warm) -- and can only report that, after initial use, this is a GREAT and WELL-DESIGNED JACKET. The other nice thing about it is the LENGTH -- longer than some of the so-called skiing or 'climbing' jackets or parkas which you see in outdoor store -- long enough to keep the tops of your legs/thighs warm/dry.

Bottom line: a damn nice piece of clothing.
