Arc'teryx Women's Trident Jacket

another quality Arc'teryx product
Another great Arc'teryx product. Based on previous reviews and own experience with brand, opted to purchase this jacket one size larger since I knew I'd be using it to layer while skiing. Wanted wind proofing/water repellant qualities in new jacket, so chose the Trident jacket based on product review and specs on Altrec site and Arc'teryx site. Very pleased. Yes, pockets may sit higher, but don't see this as problem since whatever I carry in pockets produces some bulk, typically carry in camelbak I always ski with.

Fantastic!
Typical Arc'teryx quality and thoughtful design. Excellent quality, materials, workmanship. Highly recommend!

Won't fit larger chested women
I love Arc’teryx jackets, but this one disappointed me. I was really looking forward to wearing this beautiful softshell, but it doesn't fit the female body well like Arc’teryx jackets usually do. This jacket is really unflattering and tight in the chest. I'd say if you're a C cup or larger, this jacket won't fit you in the chest either. The pockets are higher than most jackets (like the gamma SV) to accommodate for your pack, but it's actually really awkward because this jacket fits much tighter than the gamma MX and the material near the pockets pops out even if they're zipped closed. I'd try ordering it in a bigger size, but as it is the sleeves are too long (another problem I've never had with any other Arc’teryx jacket). All of my other Arc’teryx jackets in the same size fit perfectly, but this one really suffers from poor fit. After trying it on with just a t-shirt, I can't imagine trying to wear any other layers underneath it. I won't be able to test any of its technical abilities because I'd rather spend my money on a better-fitting jacket. But this jacket may fit smaller chested women better.
