Foursquare Rafter Jacket - Women's

Too Form-fitting

By Ranked #34 - Women's Snowboard Jackets November 30, 2011

I love the color and style of this jacket, but it is not good for snowboarding. I was disappointed in the lack of wrist gaiters because the sleeves are really short on this jacket. When I lift my arms over my head, the sleeves come about 3 - 4 inches short of my wrists. For how little insulation it has, it is surprisingly warm, but overall I'm not impressed. I would definitely wear this jacket around the city, but it is too constricting for any girl that needs free mobility when she rides. Until brands can figure out how to make lady's clothing that performs well, I'll stick to my men's jackets, thanks.

Overall: cute, feminine, and flattering, but low performance.
