Great shell
By Eric Dacus
Ranked #2697 - Men's Technical Shells
March 2, 2007
I had two versions of this coat, an older non-CSS iteration and the newer version here. Both were great I've had the current jacket for about a year now and the DWR coating is still holding up very well. Great shell, pockets are well placed, hood is easy to adjust and fits nicely over a helmet. My only complaint is the pit zips are a little hard to use with one hand.
