Columbia Loop Trail III Windbreaker - Women's Alpenglow, XL

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I grab this when I want a lightweight layer that actually does a bit of everything. It cuts wind well, sheds light rain, and the back vent keeps me from overheating on uphill pushes. It packs into its own pocket too, which makes it perfect for travel or trail days when space is tight.""We head out knowing the breeze might pick up or clouds might roll through, and that’s exactly when the Loop Trail™ III Windbreaker Jacket from Columbia earns its place in our kit. The light nylon fabric moves quietly and easily as we wander ridge trails or explore breezy lakeshores, and the UPF protection keeps us comfortable when the sun makes an appearance. When things shift, the three-piece hood and adjustable hem help us seal out unexpected gusts. What makes this jacket so versatile is how much performance it packs into such a small footprint. Omni-Shield repels light moisture and resists stains when the day gets unpredictable, while a back vent maintains airflow during steady climbs. Zip hand pockets give us secure storage, and when we don’t need it, the whole jacket tucks neatly into its own pocket. It’s the kind of layer we keep close because it’s ready for almost anything."
