Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Patagonia Men's Stretch Metabolic Jacket delivers the top-notch weather protection alpine climbers and backcountry skiers need at a light weight to satisfy ounce obsessions. Though this Patagonia shell weighs only 15.5oz, its waterproof breathable H2No Storm Stretch nylon shell keeps you completely dry in the worst downpour. A helmet-compatible hood and pockets that sit above a climbing harness make the Stretch Metabolic Jacket an ideal choice for technical alpine climbing. Whatever the terrain, whatever the weather, this Patagonia jacket keeps up with ease."

From Patagonia:
"Now on sale for $165.00, save $110.00! Climbing in potentially drenching conditions calls for waterproof/breathable protection that won't limit your movement or weigh you down. The improved Stretch Metabolic now incorporates our welded seam technology throughout for better weatherproofing, compressibility, durability and lighter weight. Details include 3-layer stretch-fabric reinforcements on the shoulders and down the sleeves; coated water-resistant center-front zip, pit zips and pocket zippers; anatomically molded, perforated hook-and-loop wrist cuffs; a roll-down, three-way adjustable hood that fits over a helmet. Pocketing: high hand pockets (above the harness line), an internal drop-in, an internal zip and a single external chest. The improved fit is still trim with room for underlayers. The women's is femininely contoured. Imported."

From Backcountry Outlet:
"A Womens Stretch Metabolic Jacket from Patagonia moves with you as you climb higher."

From RockCreek:
"The Stretch Metabolic Jacket by Patagonia is a light, packable, durable waterproof / breathable shell with stretch for limber moves in full-on alpine conditions."

"This is an excellent jacket. I also have a Gore-Tex XCR jacket, but this one is just IT.

A very lightweight jacket with 3-layer reinforcements at the right places. On the shoulders so you can carry your bagpack without damaging the jacket. More than enough ventilation openings and taped zippers are the finishing touch."
