Product Review: SCOTTeVEST - Sterling Jacket for Women

This is a jacket that I wish I had years ago when I was globe trotting and racing triathlons near and far. Traveling light is paramount to a stress free experience as is keeping important items close by and away from the sticky hands of would-be thiefs. This jacket is your personal secret agent costume featuring a RFID blocking pocket to protect your sensitive possessions (ie credit cards & passport) from skimmers.

The Sterling Jacket for women, made by SCOTTeVest is available is six colors including black, beige, fog, navy, red and boysenberry. I choose the navy, since I wear so much blue, but I'm still thinking boysenberry would have been a great choice, too. Of course, might as well add black, beige and fog, too! The Sterling is machine washable so if you find yourself covered with trail dust, mud or peanut butter and jelly fingerprints from your kid, no worries.

I really love the cut of the Sterling jacket. It is tailored to the feminine shape without being tight. The jacket converts to a vest with a few quick unzips to remove the arms. I ordered a size medium and it fits nicely though at 5'10,  I wonder if a size large would have been even better. I suppose it depends on how much I pack into each of the 23 pockets. Yes, 23! The Sterling features artfully placed pockets with zippers and velcro to carry everything from your gadgets, writing implements, ID/cards, a water bottle and just about anything you can dream up. That brings me to the video below. As mother to an animal loving toddler, sometimes pockets are needed to carry a few 'extra' friends.
