Soft and incredibly warm, the Monkey Woman Jacket from Mountain Hardwear is made from Monkey Phur fabric - warmer than most 300 weight fleece, and significantly lighter. It's insulating efficiency makes it an outstanding cold-weather layer and the great lines result in a snazzy stand-alone jacket.

  • Treat yourself to some of the softest fabric around with Monkey Phur fleece that is also incredibly stretchy and compressible
  • More than just soft and plush, the high warmth-to-weight ratio keeps you warm in all environments
  • Made to seal warmth in without constricting movement - the cuffs, wrist panels, and waist are made with sealing TechnoStretch fabric
  • Store your cell phone and digital camera in the two front zip hand pockets and a TechnoStretch zip chest pocket
  • Full front zip
  • Weight: 15 oz
    • Fabric: polyester

"This fleece is definitely amazing and versatile enough to last through different climates. I used it in the evenings sea kayaking and on the mountains in single digit weather. It provided a comfortable layer and is super light for backpacking. The only down side is that the sides on the lower back are a different, stretchy material and wind goes right through them. With wind protection on top, this fleece is inc..." Read Full Review »

Wash inside out!

"I bought this jacket in black 7 months ago. I wore it everywhere. It is very comfortable and warm (if it's not too windy!). After a couple weeks of ware the fur started matting in areas of well use, like the shoulders where the straps of my backpack and my purse hang, and across the hips and chest where my backpack clips in front. I have not been able to get the matting to come out. Washing the jacket insid..." Read Full Review »

"I'm always an avid fan of Mtn Hardwear, but unfortunately the Monkey Phur on mine shed to a degree that no lint brush could defeat - perhaps I got a defect. It's super warm and cozy, perfect near a campfire, but it was almost too warm. Not as breathable as MH windstopper fleece and I found it too …"  Read Full Review »

"This coat is super soft and comfortable. I wear it over a warm baselayer in cold weather and stay warm. It also works great under a water proof shell. The extra pocket on the chest of the coat is also pretty big and I have yet to lose any of the coat's fuzz. I usually wear a small coat but had to …"  Read Full Review »

"I love my monkey woman...it's by far the most comfortable jacket I own. The great thing about this jacket is that it's nice and warm without being too heavy. I wear it alone throughout the fall and spring, and in winter I layer it under my shell for cold and windy days. The slim fit makes it easy to …"  Read Full Review »
