Patagonia Women's Insulated Snowbelle Jacket

overall great jacket
January 13, 2012

I had been in the market for a new ski jacket for a while, and after trying on numerous brands, I finally settled on the Patagonia Snowbelle. This jacket has a great fit, it is flattering to a woman's body and is long enough in the back to keep you warm when on the ski lift. I am petite and ordered an xs, it fits perfectly. The arm length is just perfect and I love that the hood is insulated as well as removable. The pockets are great and the pit-vents are easy to pull open when needed. I have worn this skiing in the Catskills and Telluride, and it held up great even in wet conditions. You definitely have to layer underneath as this jacket is warm, but is not windproof in chilly conditions. The mobility in the jacket is great as even when layered, you have excellent freedom of movement. Overall this is a great purchase and for a Patagonia product, a great price. I highly recommend!

Nice Jacket

As with all things Patagonia, this jacket is well put together and good quality. It is not a super technical coat, not a lot of pockets and zippers, which is good for me. I like this jacket a lot!

Almost Perfect

I bought this jacket because it matched my red Patagonia Pants. I like the style and fit. I bought the medium and I weigh 130 pounds 5'5". The two features I wish it had was built in stretchy wrist warmers that slip over your thumb and something similar to that around the neck as those are the only two spots I get cold. It does have the velcro closures around the wrists but those don't seem as effective with big gloves that I take on and off. Overall I would recommend the jacket.

Great ski jacket

Great product! I wore it skiing in Tahoe, great fit. I am 5'7" 135lb and am somewhere in the small to med size range- I chose the medium and am happy with the choice. With a layer underneath, it fits great and is warm. I have longer arms and the length is great. It's really comfortable, not too heavy and definitely not bulky. It is well-constructed and seems like it will definitely last.

love this jacket... but maybe it pills a bit?

so i tried on a ton of jackets at patagonia and i love this jacket... the fit and style of it are very cool. love the storm velcro flap at front. the fabric is really nice... a very subtle herringbone texture, very dark black... not too shiny and very soft. i can wear this in the city or on the slopes. this is super waterproof... have worn it in pouring rain in the city and also snowstorms on the slopes, and the water rolls right off. only worn this about 10 times but starting to notice a bit of pilling on the fabric under my wrists... worried about how this will look long term.

Excellent quality and warmth without the bulk!

I purchased this jacket for my teenage daughter! Although she doesn't do much skowboarding, she wanted a jacket that provided warmth without the "bulk." If this is what you're looking for then the Patagonia Insulated Snowbelle is the jacket for you!!! The fabric and construction is of supreme quality! I would definitely recommend this jacket!

This was my first Patagonia purchase, and it was a success. I wanted a warm waterproof ski coat, but couldn't decide between realiable North Face or Patagonia (a friend recommend the latter to me). I decided to go out on a limb and order this jacket because I liked the color and all the amenities. After receiving the jacket, I am pleased with my decision. The natural color is lovely, with the blue accent giving it some color! I am 5'5'', 130 lbs, and this jacket is a touch loose, but when I layer under it, I am sure it will fit perfectly. The arms are a bit long, so I rolled the cuffs up and it looks super cute with the blue lining showing. Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend this jacket!

Stylish and functional

This jacket is well made, warm and shows off a girl's shape. After looking at dozens of ski jackets, I am very happy with this purchase. The only critique is that the sleeves are long for short-armed people like me.
