Mountain Hardwear Epic Jacket - Men's

Item #MHW1178 | 626 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Great When It Rains!

By Ranked #374 - Men's Rain Jackets January 14, 2009

I wanted a great rain jacket to keep out the rain and chilly winds and this one certainly serves the purpose. It is actually very good in climates like humid Singapore but it is definitely not warm enough to be used in far colder climates alone to keep warm. Overall I love the design of everything on the jacket except for the hood area because it doesn't fold down nicely to form a great looking jacket with a collar. It sort of sticks out and just looks weird in that area. Oh well I guess what is important is that it serves the purpose it was intended, though I would have given it five stars if not for the collar/hood area!
