Are you looking for the perfect all around Spring/Summer Jacket? We may just have a solution for you. The Patagonia Simple Guide Jacket ranked #1 out of all the jackets we have tested out for the Spring. Between performance, fashion, and price, this jacket is superior.

Whether you’re out running in town or on the trails, hiking, mountain biking, backpacking, climbing, spring skiing, or snowshoeing, the Simple Guide is an amazing performer. The Simple Guide is made of a highly breathable and stretch woven softshell fabric that keeps you dry while exerting yourself in high energy activities and keeps you protected from the harshest weather.

Since many of us like to use one jacket for a lot of activities, we often like a jacket to work in varying temperatures and weather conditions. This said, we sometimes like to wear a t-shirt and in cooler temps wear a thicker long sleeve for added warmth. The Simple Guide layers nicely with a variety of baselayers, while also maintaining a streamlined fit.

With a MSRP of $119, we found this jacket to be a steal. It’s a jacket that you will be able to use for a number of different activities and look good around town. The material is also super durable which helps with the longevity of the jacket. As you might imagine, we have found this jacket to be our editors choice for this spring jackets.
