Sierra Designs Hurricane Parka - Women's
Brand : Sierra DesignsItem : SDS0089
Sierra Designs' Hurricane LT Parka is a lightweight, waterproof, breathable jacket designed to keep your core dry in the rainiest and sweatiest of conditions. Two-layers of waterproof/breathable coating on a nylon fabric and fully taped seams will keep the rain from getting in. Breathable fabric allows sweaty moisture vapors to escape—so your core won't smother. Patented Extremity Vents extend from the wrist to upper arm, create the effect of “rolling up your sleeves” without getting wet. This lightweight shell travels well. Ideal for high-aerobic activities such as backpacking and running, or for less-sweaty activities such as rainy-day urban assaults.

Sierra Designs Hurricane Parka - Women's
Great all-purpose travel jacket!
My husband and I each purchased this waterproof jacket for our 1st trip to Alaska. It served as EXCELLENT protection against rain, wind and cold. Generous sizing allowed me to wear over turtleneck and sweatshirt layers. Zipper vents and inside pockets very useful. Pleased that I was able to easily wipe jacket clean as incidental spotting occured. Will take this jacket on EVERY future vacation!
Singing in the rain
I have only had my Hurricane LT Parka for about a month now and I don't know how I lived without it. Even on those hot spring afternoon showers, my jacket kept me from overheating while shedding off those rain drops. Sprinkling or a down pour, it kept me dry. The arm vents work wonders! The only problem I had was that the jacket ran a little big - which actually allows me to add more layers if I need to. The front is a little bulky too, but performance wise, the Hurricane Parka can't be beat!
Sierra Designs Hurricane Parka
My husband and I are novice packbackers and he urged that we needed to have rain gear. My last packing was 30 years ago, during a long drought in Southern California - so what do I know about rain? He was right, I bought the Sierra Designs Hurricane Parka and it was a lifesaver! On our 4th trip, this Oct. in King's Canyon, it started raining at 3 am, and rained continuously until we reached the car many hours later. My parka kept me warm, dry and comfortable. (At least, as warm as possible!) We felt the trip was totally successful, in spite of the rain. I know that I would not have felt as good about the trip if I'd had to break camp and hike out in wet jeans!
keeping dry rules
This parka is a great value! It rolls up nice for easy carrying and keeps me dry. I’ve used it for hiking and biking in some serious rain. I like the VELCRO/zip combination for the pockets and front closures. Dries quickly. Lightweight but sturdy. Well made. Many uses ahead... I probably don’t look so sexy, but nobody sees me when I’m using it. That’s why it gets 4 stars.
hurricane parka
I love my Hurricane Parka! I just had a trip to the South Island in New Zealand where it is cold and snowy right now. The parka was perfect for keeping out the cold wind and the sudden rain showers. Great for layering and it keeps me dry, can't ask for more!
