| The Mountain Hardwear Monkey Woman is one of the most breathable, technical and attractive fleeces around. The Monkey Woman’s fleece, affectionately called Monkey Phur, is more plush and shaggy than the common standard. It makes you warm just looking at it. The Monkey Woman is an absolute MUST for winter backcountry enthusiasts, and a great-looking alternative to the run-of-the-mill fleece jackets you see everyday. In fact, it’s one of the most unique, technical and attractive fleeces around. Made with Polartec Thermal Pro High Loft, the Monkey Woman’s fleece, affectionately known as Monkey Phur, is more plush and shaggy than the common standard. It makes you warm just looking at it. That said, the Monkey Woman is ironically much lighter than comparable fleece jackets, which brings us to its technical side. It’s perfect for those concerned with insulating efficiency, i.e., most warmth per weight, and compressibility (packs well). When you hold the Monkey Woman up to the sun, you’ll see its noticeably open structure, dots of light poking through. It’s SUPER breathable, so when you’re skinning up the mountain quickly on a cold, bluebird day, you won’t overheat and have to shed layers. Polartec Power Stretch cuffs and waist afford excellent freedom of movement, and are cut specifically to fit women well. Obviously not windproof, the Monkey Woman will be chilly in biting (East Coast) winds. Just throw on a weatherproof shell, and you have a layering system that’s tough to beat. |
Bottom Line: No monkeys were harmed in the making of this awesome, technical fleece jacket. |
