Gear Review
the Typhoon
By peliROJO
Ranked #2707 - Men's Technical Shells
August 27, 2007
Light weight, thin, and about 2 inches short in length. It has a very thin, plastic-y feel. Reminds of a cheep jacket from my youth. Not what I was looking for but I'm sure with the Gore-Tex name and extreme lightness it would perform well for some conditions. When I put it on I instantly thought my shirt tail would get wet if not tucked in. Returned.
