Bought a Calcite to replace the Torrentshell I had grown out of. At a reduced price the two jackets were almost the same price so went fir Calcite with added GoreTex. Fantastic jacket for walking. Good sized pockets for phone, wallet etc and hood is perfect for rainy days. Very Happy with purchase except that sleeves are very long for me so have to... Read More roll them up and can't use velcro closure at cuff.
Fits well, good for skiing or hiking. Has a high zip neck which is good for skiing and a little more rigid than wanted for hiking, but still great for either!
I bought the Calcite Jacket to wear to outdoor sporting events in the Pacific Northwest. I bought the Womens Large I am 5ft 5in 142pds. This is a little big but I bought it to wear layers so it fits great layered up. The waterproof part is perfect but it is just a shell not to be considered warm.

After adjusting the cords and tightening it looks great. I would give 5 stars if it had even a little insulation. It will keep me dry and that is what I needed most. I would recommend the jacket if you need waterproof.
My husband gifted me with this jacket for Christmas after we had to bike in the rain in October without proper gear. We usually don't spend this much on apparel, but the quality is well worth the cost! (And we really appreciate Patagonia's business model.) I will definitely have to do some wet rides to justify owning this wonderful jacket... Read More.
We're not mountain bikers, but rather big fans of Rail Trails. I've done a few rides in the jacket this February and also worn it when I'm out and about. It doesn't keep me quite as warm as I thought it might, but it's a great windbreaker and is roomy enough for layering. I love all the pockets and the zippered armpit vents.
Just one little thing. When I first tried on the jacket, I checked out the pull ties in the pockets that tighten the bottom of the coat. The little knob on one tie immediately came off. Definitely not worth sending back for repair, but I'd appreciate knowing if there's a type of glue or adhesive I should use to reattach it. If nothing else, I'll just tie a not at the end of the cord.
All in all, I highly recommend this jacket and am proud to possess something made by Patagonia!

Good for raining day
I bought a similar one at Germany 7 years ago and it's still fine. Therefore, I bought this one for my daughter. The design is a bit plain but the fit is about the same. It feels a bit thinner then the other one I have. Overall, we like it.
My 20 year old plus Marmot jacket was old and tired. Loved it. It was time for a new Gortex weatherproof jacket. Took the plunge and no regrets! I love everything Patagonia!
Purchased during Patagonia's annual sale for backpacking in the Northwest. After reading the reviews, I decided to buy one size larger than usual, and now my base layer and puffy fit perfectly underneath it. Waterproof so far! Only con is that the navy blue color is practically black.
I wasn't sure about which size would fit me since I have wide hips (105cm), but relatively small waist (76cm). Usually I'm a size M on top and L on the bottom. I ordered both sizes just to be sure and went with the L in the end. The M fit, but was snug around the hips. L will be better for layering.
The sleeves are relatively long - they ... Read Moreend where my fingers start-, which I like. The jacket in general is on the longer side. On me it ends "mid-butt", which IMO is perfect.
I was also a bit "worried" that the hood would be weirdly big, because it also fits a helmet, but it's not. The armpit zips are nice as well :P
I've only worn it a handful of times and only in light rain, but so far I'm really happy with it.
I brought this and my down puffer on a trip to England and Scotland. Alone its a great rain jacket with under arm vents if its hot. The exterior is superior to all other rain gear across the usual quality brands I frequent. Its not that wind breaker wrinkled garbage bag quality jacket. Together with a down jacket it stands up to any type of weather... Read More you could possibly encounter. Light and packable. I have it in blue and black. If I had to give a con it would be the oversized hood. I believe its designed to fit over a ski helmet. Although its ski worthy, I don't think most of your customers are buying their ski gear here. I much prefer this shell/down jacket combo to the Torrentshell. My son purchased the mens calcite during the recent sale and loves it!! Please don't change or discontinue this! The new Gore Tex products are not necessarily water proof. The calcite jacket is the best.
I just got this the other day and WOW. I love this jacket. It fits well and is truly rainproof. I walk everywhere in a big city so rain gear is key. It is not bulky so my backpack fits over it without being bulky under my arms. This is money well spent for years of use.
I bought this jacket after another one with a DWR coating just did not cut it against a rare heavy downpour in Ventura. Then, of course, I didn't really get to test it bc of ongoing drought conditions. And then, Winter 22-23 and its epic atmospheric rivers presents itself. This Gore-Tex jacket is amazing. It's lightweight, breathable, tot... Read Moreally waterproof, doesn't limit movement, and the hood works well. I'm a big girl, but I got the XXL for even more room for layers under the outermost shell. Its perfect. I use it casually and not often, so I am easily pleased by it, but others who need it for more specific tasks might find flaws or room to improve. As always, top quality from Patagonia and beautiful color (dark borealis green).
I am moving to a state with much harsher weather, and am very happy to have a reliable waterproof jacket to take with me.
I was on the fence about this jacket about the price but loved the color and had a similar jacket from another company at the same price previously. Similar in many ways except for better styling details. Just as light but this doesn't snag as easily to date.

Cant start zipper
I had sweatpants on when I tried a number of rain jackets (L) in store. I couldn't start the zipper. I'm 5.8, 160lbs, size 10.12 pant, m-l shirt. The coat itself is good. Very similar to the granite. But the cut is just baffling. So tight, I could never just throw this on or wear anything but a t-shirt under it. Runs small is misleading, ...

Légère, étanche à l´air et à la pluie. Le rouge est tres légèrement foncé. La capuche enveloppe bien la tete. Cette veste descend correctement sur les reins mais pas trop. Parfait pour le vélo de randonnée.
I love my Calcite jacket. Its lightweight and keeps me super dry on my PNWet forays into the woods. I wear a heavy wool sweater and if needed my down sweater under - the fit is just right. I had my old Patagonia rain jacket for 6 years - looking forward to another 6 with this one!
I replaced the exact same model/size jacket that I bought in 2012. Size small, I am 5 ft 3-1/2 inches and 125 lbs.

I tried on a medium in the store AND THE SIZE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SMALL AND MEDIUM is huge! The medium size is much too large for me overall.

Not happy, but I am sticking with the small.

Keeps me dry!
Great jacket! Love the fit, although I usually wear an XS across the board, I'm finding Patagonia items to be slightly too large so I had to exchange the XS for an XXS.

This jacket was perfect for layering and keeping me dry on hikes during a trip in Iceland. We hit up glaciers, beaches, and waterfalls, and it was perfect. I agree with many other reviews that it kept me almost too warm during strenuous hikes, but with the gusty winds & variable temps, I really didn't want anything thinner.
I was putting off buying a shell jacket afraid I would make the wrong choice, and I wish I wouldnt have waited so long on purchasing this jacket!

It doesnt look ... Read Moretoo big without the down coat underneath. Im so happy!
I got this jacket a few weeks ago but waited to write my review. I wanted to test it several times on my hour long dog walks in typical PNW heavy drizzle. This jacket passed my test with flying colors. I'm 5'5", 115 pounds and the Small fits great with room for layering.
I have worn this jacket to work, to dinner for out-door dining and snowshoeing--it packs down, so it's great to take along in my day pack. It's great to have 1 jacket that can do all things! I think the fit is on the slimmer side, so I am strategic with the layers I wear for cold adventures.
I tend to be a big fan of Patagonia I would consider a lot of their gear high quality. However this rain jacket has been on one my greatest disappointments from Patagonia.

Awesome
I bought this for winter wear in the northwestI bought a large so that I could layer underneath. I have been wearing it on my daily dog hikes. It has been working great. Good pockets and I like the chest pocket. I would recommend it.
This was a gift for someone else and that person is really impressed by the quality, warmth and windshield protection.

I purchased this jacket to hike/ walk and run in the rain and so far its been great.

Super warm, keeps out rain, beautiful navy blue color
Fits over the techface hoody and a thin sports top, but a tad snug at the hips. A 2-way zipper would help. Perfect arm length & Velcro sleeves. Great zipper pockets (YASS!), hood does not fall over your eyes.
If you plan on wearing this over a sweater, then size up.
Love-love this jacket!

This jacket is the one I've been searching for over many years of taking part in mountain sports! It packs small, weighs little, fits great, and is highly waterproof.

I love this jacket. Gorgeous colour and fits really nice. I’m a U.K. 12 and ordered a large.
It’s only a thin coat, so will need a fleece under on colder days
I purposefully bought this jacket a size larger for layering purposes. I used it twice so far: in Glacier NP and casually in Denver during a down pour. It kept me super dry. I am so glad I finally upgraded my rain shell. This jacket will serve me for years to come.
Great fit, good length and a proper hood that fits over my helmet. Packs down small and is perfect for mountain biking, hiking and climbing adventures for when the weather turns wet!
Decided to see how rain resistant it would. Went for an hour walk. When started there was a light drizzle. By the time I got back home it was an official down pour. I was dry. I was pleasantly surprised!
My wife needed a rain shell for a climb of Mount Katahdin recently. The weather was foul and the Calcite jacket was perfect. Waterproof, the hood sizing is ample and user friendly!
Got this in the Catalan Coral color and it's my favorite piece! The color is outstanding. Got the corresponding Calcite Pants too.

So Versatile! Purchased this jacket because my old raincoat was falling apart at the seams. This jacket is fabulous to say the least. I have worn it in rain with just a t-shirt underneath and in snowy 20° weather with a fleece underneath. This is now my go to outer layer. Can't say enough good things.
I am an odd shape so chose this size to fit perfectly where I need it to and still fit a mid layer or down vest underneath. This jacket is very well made, comfortable and nice looking. Oh yeah, its waterproof too!
Lightweight, super breathable, sturdy, I wear it both in the city rain and for outdoor adventures. I love the overall fit of the jacket and the large hood. My new go-to!
I am 70, trim and fit. Really wanted Patagonia rain jacket to work. I need a medium for layering and hips, but...arms way too long and a bit too much room in chest. Zipper very difficult to zip. For price just doesn't work.
My boyfriend bought this for me for my birthday because I absolutely hated my last rain jacket. This one is absolutely perfect!

Unfortunately, Patagonia jackets never seem to fit because my normal size is always about an inch too narrow in the hips. I ordered an XL, which fit everywhere but the hips.

A small tweak to the cut of jackets like this would accommodate a wider range of people without sacrificing a good fit for those with slightly narrower hips. Or, Patagonia could at least offer a style that is not as fitted and is instead more of a square cut so that true layering, for example, with a sweater or fleece, is possible.

Favorite rain gear
Love this jacket...very light, yet ultra waterproof and breathable. Flattering cut for a big boned girl ; ). Doesnt make that average rain jacket crinkle sound, and love the color! Scored an awesome price and amazing customer service at the Freeport outlet!!
This jacket is amazing! I wanted a high performance jacket for, well, real rain. This jacket has all that and more! The more is the soft feel of the texture on the outer fabric.
Typically higher performance
here is stiff. This is not! It is super soft to the touch. Plus, I love the color!
Ordered a medium (the size of my last Patagonia rain jacket) and it was too large. Exchanged it for a small. So far it's great! The sleeves are slightly too short, which is a bummer on my bike.

But none of these things are deal breakers, the quality of the jacket definitely outweighs these critiques. The last jacket I had was H2No and worked great for 5 years, I'm excited to try the Gortex. Seems lighter weight but just as warm. I got the curacao blue color and absolutely love it. It's doing a terrific job in this PNW winter rain and wind.
good fit and room for layers without looking bulky
I compared a small with a medium for fit and decided on the medium as it allowed for more comfortable layering to adjust to different activities: hiking, casual walk or cross country skiing. I am loving the fit and function so far. A little trouble getting used to the drawstring adjustment through the pockets but figuring it out.
I have worn this in the snow with a fleece underneath and it does a great job with blocking the wind and keeping you dry. Can't wait to wear it skiing!
After searching for a waterproof and breathable jacket to replace one that was 20 years old, I purchased the Ws Calcite.

Light enough to take backpacking or stuff in a pack while skinning uphill. Great for layering. Replacing old Torrentshell and Stretch Rainshadow jackets.

This jacket was the perfect piece for recent winter mountaineering trips with high winds and low temps! Like all Patagonia gear - this one will be a staple jacket for me
This is a quality jacket that goes perfectly over my down sweater. Love the XXL outer layer. Normally I wear XL, but this is allows for layering. Love it!
I was skeptical once I saw just how light (yet sturdy and durable) the material is, but it’s incredible. So warm, no bulk. Perfect shell for all seasons and all activities-raincoat for rainy day runs to snowy escapades. Also, the color is gorgeous.
I bought the grey and the color is beautiful. Fit is exactly as expected. I'm 5'7" and 145 lbs. The Medium would work but the Large gives me the ability to layer. Best part is the feel of the fabric - who knew a rain coat could have wonderful hand.
