Some wind-and water-resistant jackets make you feel like you just stuck your torso into a carboard box. Pearl Izumi added stretch side and sleeve panels to the Women's Optik Jacket, so you get weather resistance outside of the box. Layer a short-sleeve jersey under the semi-fitted Optik Jacket on chilly mornings, and stash this lightweight, packable jacket in your hydration pack when the sun comes out.

 the ultimate tiny packable fitted feminine jacket, November 7, 2009
|
|
Love this jacket - just purchased my second one - and I searched long and hard before finding the right fit in an amazingly packable 3 oz jacket.
SIZING: A Large fits me perfectly. I'm a tad over 5'7. 145 lbs. Broad shoulders, busty (34D) but otherwise slim-ish (hips 38", waist 30 1/2") and longish in the arms. I tried similar jackets in other brands, even other Pearl Izumi lightweight jackets, in mens and womens. All were either too tight in the chest and shoulders or they were too baggy in the body. So if you're shaped like me and looking for a fitted cycling jacket that easily fits in your jersey pocket or saddlebag, you're in luck.
I've worn it twice and got rained on for 10 minutes today. The water really beaded up on it and didn't soak thru, so it works well, at least for limited duration showers. I bought it because I wanted something I can fit in a jersey pocket that lets me adjust warmth on a ride with variable temperatures (which is every ride, right?).
I have the white with black panels (and the side panels really do stretch, just enough to make this slim fitting jacket work perfectly). The white looks sharp (and just ordered moab, the orange color with grey).
I have slim forearms, but can only push the sleeves halfway up my forearms because the wrist elastic won't stretch much. I've always found tight elastic wrists a curious constraint on athletic gear since you often need to adjust venting constantly, including by pushing up your sleeves. I can overlook this limitation. Has a lightweight full front zipper, but no back zip pocket (unless you buy a more recent model, not likely on sale). That's fine - i want less bulk in this and would rather use my jersey for pockets. The jacket has a 3x3" mesh interior pocket, for stuffing the jacket, that would fit a key and credit card/dollars. The reflective logos are tiny - don't count on them for your entire visibility ;-) Overall, highly recommend this.
