Ranked #2089 - Men's Rain Jackets
June 16, 2008
I used it in rainy, windy, cold and warm conditions. it is completely Water - windproof, yet breathable. i never got sweaty (don't expect the breathability of a cotton shirt but considering what it is made for it is great). extremely Lightweight, fits true to size. the sleeves are a little on the long side which I love as it keeps you completely dry, also the length is a little on the longer side, just under your belt line, but protects you from water running down inside your pants. High collar up to your chin, great for keeping water and cold out, the hood is adjustable and fits perfectly. great for layering. It is a great all year round jacket. A lot of jackets made of this material / for that purpose feel a bit stiff or plasticy, this one is very comfortable. Hardly any of that terrible plastic rubbing to plastic noise. I love the zips at the pits, great ventilation, and the front zips, easy access even with heavy loads. The zips are also reverse means waterproof. only minus is the cuffs, the way the hook-and-loop was put on it, gets a bit itchy at times.
