I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this online. I love the colors and have a number of other items from Cotopaxi that I love. This jacket is so lightweight. The puffer part for the torso is extremely thin. The material on the arms isn't much heavier than a long sleeve t-shirt. I live in Minnesota and I'm always outdoors. I have a winter jacket for the coldest part of the year but was looking for something to fit the 40 to 50° days and this is absolutely perfect. This definitely isn't for anything below freezing but will be my go to for Spring and Fall! The thinner material of the sleeves will make it hard to layer with a sweatshirt without looking clumpy but a regular under layer works fine with it. I'm 5'7, around 135 lb and a Medium fits like it was made just for me!
This jacket is a game-changer for anyone who loves staying active outdoors without compromising comfort or style. I love the color combination, and most importantly, its smart hybrid design with insulation and breathable side panels that prevent overheating while maintaining core warmth. The hood fits snugly without feeling restrictive, and the water-resistant shell keeps light rain at bay. I also love how lightweight the jacket is, and it feels great knowing I’m using recycled materials as part of my commitment to sustainability, which I share with the brand. Highly recommended for anyone who wants gear that works hard and looks great doing it.
I love my jacket. It’s turquoise and I get several compliments on the color as it’s bright as is common with the brand, but more conservative. It’s easy to travel with because it’s light weight, looks good and keeps me warm. I’m love it!!
This was my very first Cotopaxi purchase, and I couldn’t be happier with it. I originally tried on a friend’s jacket and immediately fell in love with the fit, comfort, and lightweight feel—it just felt right. The quality is obvious the second you put it on: the materials feel durable yet breathable, and the stitching and details are really well done. One thing I especially appreciate is the variety of colors available. As a nonbinary person, it feels great to see options that aren’t limited by the usual gendered color choices. Living in the Bay Area, I’ve found this jacket to be the perfect layer for our unpredictable in-between weather. It’s warm enough for cool mornings, light enough for sunny afternoons, and packs easily when I don’t need it. Overall: comfy, versatile, and makes me feel good wearing it. Definitely won me over.
I’ve been looking for a jacket that could serve my outdoor activity needs while also looking good enough to wear casually. This is all of that and more! It’s true to the high quality I’ve come to expect of Cotopaxi apparel, plus it’s light weight, stretchy for maximum mobility when needed, and it looks SO good! The waffle-type backing on the sleeves, hood, and side panels as stretch and moisture wicking while still feeling warm. I was between a small and medium (size 6, 140 lbs, 5’8”), but I went with a medium which fits perfectly with just enough room for an extra layer underneath if needed. It’s expensive, but since it will serve a couple purposes so perfectly, I think it’s absolutely worth it!
I needed a last-minute fall jacket for a trip to London. I knew it would be a bit chilly, but I would also be walking several miles a day. This jacket proved to be the perfect answer! Breathable but warm when needed to be! And on top of all that…so stylish!
I love love love this jacket it is so comfy and great for a breezy spring day
Light weight but warm and breaks the wind. The sleeves are very light weight/hybrid, but lined with a soft thin layer of a waffled fleece which makes them feel so soft and cozy without any bulk! Love it!
This is cut for a tall person with no hips. I love the colors and fabric and the shoulders fit great, but if you have a woman's body (even athletic and not too curvy), the band at the hips cuts in like a bad pair of swim bottoms. Not attractive.
OMG, love this jacket! I live in Florida where I can see 3 seasons in the same week. I bought this jacket because of a renewed interest & love of hiking. I have a 20 mile day group hike coming up and need the layering capability. This jacket fits the bill! Very lightweight, packs easily & efficiently into my backpack. It’s now become my go to daily jacket. I’ve been able to donate several of my other coats & jackets to cost drives. It runs true to size but I do like a little more room for movement & layering. XXL is perfect for me. This was my 1st purchase with Cotopaxi & will be a return customer. Thank you!!
