Outdoor Research Razor Jacket - Men's

The 4.1oz Outdoor Research Men's Razor Jacket makes an excellent windbreaker for trail running or an emergency rain shell for ultralight hiking and climbing trips. Lightweight, packable 15D nylon is highlighted with stretch taffeta panels for added flexibility and breathability, while a DWR coating fights off light rain when an unexpected storm hits. Though the Razor Jacket is razor thin, its versatility means you'll have no problem throwing it in your pack every time you hit the trail.

Bottom Line: Weather protection that doesn't weigh much more than a plastic grocery sack.

Decent windbreaker, runs small

By: lot(1)

The Razor is very lightweight and packs down very small, which makes it great to carry around for 'emergencies'. It blocks the wind just fine and, in my experience, also sheds light rain -- but don't expect waterproofness or any form of insulation from it. I'm having a hard time justifying the price, but it is a good deal when on sale. Unfortunately it runs very small, especially in the sleeves: I normally wear L and sometimes XL, but in this case even XL was too small and I ended up returning it.

Good but not light enough

By: Pardner(15)

I would still recommend this because of relative quality but I went with something lighter -- the Helly Hansen Mars jacket. This may be more durable but the Mars just feels and is lighter and when you need every advantage, lighter can't hurt. Size up.

Close fitting, light-weight wind"breaker"

The jacket: A) Looks great. B) Packs very small - good for your saddle bag if you are a biker, good for a summit run on a questionable warm day. C) Fits tight, be cautious D) Is a windbreaker - PERIOD

ehhh...

I usually wear mediums pretty loosly, but this jacket is very tight. Works ok at best when it comes to blocking wind. Also, you can expect to get soaked if youre in anything more than a slight drizzle. Looks better than what is shown in the picture... but im still debating whether or not this jacket was worth the 88 bucks. If youre a lightweight extreamest however, it might be worth considering...

Lightweight, stretchy, and great looking jacket

By: Matthew S.(2)
June 7, 2006

This jacket is as light as it looks, and yet it offers great water resistance and remarkable stretch at the elbows and in other places where you need it. Seams are sturdily constructed. The fit runs on the small side, often size small is too big for me, but this one wasn't. No hood and "razor"-thin material means it can't be used for heavy downpours, but it's a great jacket for short outings.
