Part of the IceBreaker Patrol Series Collection, the IceBreaker Pinnacle Full Zip Jacket for Women is made from expedition weight GT320 Merino wool and provides warm, insulating comfort in a form flattering fit that feels at home on the slopes or at the pub.
My new favorite sweater
I'm a huge icebreaker fan and wanted an outer layer from their winter collection. This piece is PERFECT! 320 is almost their heaviest weight fabric. This works as a great outer layer through 60-degrees (with a thin layer underneath) and a great mid layer for colder temps. I also wear this indoors in an overly air-conditioned office. I bought the Java color -- the zipper is actually cranberry colored, which doesn't show up in the picture. No hood, no thumb loops, which is fine by me because other jackets have hoods and thumbloops. Fit is slim but not skin-tight. If you plan to wear this over bodyfit layers, then get your normal size. If you want to have bulky layers underneath, then maybe order a size up as the arms will get tight. My favorite part about the Pinnacle is surprisingly the pockets -- they are soooo soft and so warm when I put my hands in them! Depending on how you layer it this will definitely be a three-season sweater (or maybe 4 season, depending on your office).
