Who Are The FW Women’s Manifest Tour 3L Jacket and Manifest Tour 3L Bib For?

Made for the ladies who aren’t afraid to venture off the beaten path, the Manifest jacket and pants are designed for keeping the elements at bay. Functional detailing, 100% seam-sealed and lightweight, these work equally well for longer and shorter backcountry adventures. And on top of that, 1% of your purchase goes towards a non-profit organisation that serves the environment we love.

Materials and Construction

Both the jacket and the pants are made from a 3L fabric that is both waterproof and breathable, designed to keep you cool on the warmer days, dry during snowfall and, given that you’ve layered up, warm when the temperatures drop. The 4-way stretch nylon used allows for freer movement too, while the cut is made very precisely to avoid any excess weight.

The Manifest Tour bibs come with Cordura side panels, making them incredibly soft and providing comfort for longer tours. The DWR coating used is also PFC-free while the product itself is bluesign approved.

Fit and Features

As you’d expect from outerwear designed for the backcountry, the Manifest Jacket has a tighter fit to avoid any excess weight. The bibs too, are quite tight-fitted, but allow for room to layer up comfortably.

The Manifest jacket features an adjustable helmet-compatible hood, wrist gaiters with thumb loops, large side venting, a large chest pocket, a waterproof sleeve pocket to stash your valuables in and an extra-large front pocket to store i.e., gloves in.

With articulated knees cut for ergonomic excellence, the Manifest bibs have got a two-way zip running from the side body to mid-thigh making it easier to quickly open the bibs without removing the jacket if in need of a bathroom break. The suspenders are ergonomically adjustable and come with comfortable flat buckles. There are also large multi-entry thigh pockets with vents for added breathability and a zip-and-snap button system that makes the bib cuff adjustable and easier to shorten for touring.

Roundup

Finding a good 3L jacket and pair of pants equipped with a female fit isn’t always easy as the market doesn’t cater to the female audience as well as it does to the male, which is why it’s great to see that FW is now offering the Women’s Manifest Tour 3L Jacket and Manifest Tour 3L Bib for some more serious outdoor adventures.
