The Collar Drives Me Crazy

By Eric Ranked #639 - Men's Rain Jackets April 29, 2011

I like everything about this jacket except the collar.. It is very stiff when the hood is stuffed into the back of it. The collar spans out very wide across the chest unless you zip up. The collar is made of fleece which means if its just drizzling out, and you prefer to have your hood down, then your collar is eventually going to get very wet. So its either have the hood up when it rains or your collar is going to get very wet.

To deal with the collar, I folded it underneath the inside of the jacket so its resting on the back of my neck but left the hood out. So it looks like a cool hoodie. Now when I zip up, the collar doesn't bother me and it really doesn't look that awkward if I zip up all the way. I wished the jacket was made more like a real hoodie.
