Whether you’re active in the outdoors or traveling in cities, the weight of your belongings is a big deal. Packing heavy clothing along in suitcases and backpacks is rarely your best move, and examining each clothing items for its utility as well as its weight will usually serve you well.

When selecting something for warmth, the Eddie Bauer MicroTherm StormDown Jacket is both lightweight and versatile, ideal to wear and stash in your pack just in case.
The jacket’s 800-fill down is extremely warm and lightweight, and is treated with a DWR finish so it retains its loft in wet weather. The down is contained in streamlined micro-channels, in order to be highly compressible and warm.
Wear the jacket as an underlayer with other jackets over the top, or as outerwear. The windproof 20D ripstop polyester shell has DWR finish to shed moisture instead of allowing it to soak in, and is also made of 50 percent recycled content.
Stretch fleece panels allow this jacket to move with you, whether you’re climbing or just reaching for that extra pint of beer across the table.
Tight, constraining clothing is no fun, especially when you need to move around.
The two zippered hand pockets and interior chest pocket have enough room to stash your small essentials, and the entire jacket can be packed into the chest pocket.
Pack it up, store it in your bag, or clip it somewhere close (like a climbing harness) to east access when you get chilly.
The Eddie Bauer Women’s MicroTherm StormDown Jacket comes in a rainbow of colors: black, carbon, cinder, Adriatic blue, Caribbean blue, Imperial blue, navy, sapphire, emerald, dark purple, purple haze, sangria, poppy and silver.
