The Torrid women’s synthetic jacket is made in Minesota (United States) by Enlightened Equipment. It has a minimalist, lightweight design, which makes it especially popular among long-distance ultralight hikers.
When to use it
It is traditionally used to stay warm while resting, at camp, or together with your sleeping bag when temperatures drop more than expected.
Compared to down, synthetic insulation does not lose loft when wet and, as a result, it continues to retain the heat your body generates. It is ideal for most 3-season hiking routes (spring-summer-autumn). Of course, you can also use it in winter, as long as you understand its limitations.

Design
It has a fairly simple design and takes up very little space once compressed. It has 2 zippered side pockets to store your items or keep your hands warm inside. Another zipper lets you fully or partially open the jacket if you need ventilation.
The raglan sleeves improve freedom of movement. The elastic cuffs, waist adjustment with shock cord, and insulated hood with drawcord help reduce cold air entry.

Made with Climashield APEX and 10D nylon
To keep you warm, it uses a moisture-resistant synthetic insulation called ClimaShield Apex. This high-end thermal insulation is made in the USA and is one of the lightest, most compressible, and most efficient options available on the market.
The fabric feels very soft against the skin. In addition, the outer fabric has a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating that repels water, mud, and dirt.
