Delta Jacket

Women's

I absolutely love this jacket. It's lightweight and does an awesome job with temperature regulation. I wear it running, dog walking, while doing yoga and over my scrubs in the hospital. I love that it doesn't cling to my long hair or dog hair like traditional fleece. Dries very quickly as well.

My two Delta's without the front panel have been worn so much that they need to be replaced. While sporty, they are versatile enough to use for every day. The new design with the front panel in the different material makes the jacket both less versatile and less attractive - what woman wants an extra piece of fabric in their chest area? Please please bring back the old model!

I love this jacket as my mid-layer for mountaineering and outdoor climbing. It does neither get too wet during exhausting activities, nor does it smell during the second day of long tours. The waffle structure is wonderful and is something I'm missing on other pieces which I returned because of the texture (e.g., Kyanite).

At first I didn't like the Delta Jacket. It just didn't convince me. I have an Atom Hoody and a Covert Cardigan, which are really nice, but they get a bit too hot at times. That's why I tried the Delta Jacket, and I fell in love with it! It's so soft, warm, and light. It looks great in Fika, and that's the color I chose. I brought it with me on vacation and on hikes, and it was the perfect versatile mid layer. I purchased it at the beginning of spring, can't wait to see how it will perform in the winter as a second layer.

I love and own several full zip Delta fleece, the older model and the new one from last year. I also own two quarter zip without a hoody that I love for skiing, hiking, fly fishing on cooler days and anywhere! Please bring back the quarter zip without a hoody. I miss them.
