Zipper Issues

Ranked #815 - Men's Rain Jackets
August 5, 2008
For the most part, I really liked the jacket. It was light weight as advertised, and the hood had a really nice cinching system that I would have loved. However, I couldn't get over a zipper problem. Whenever I unzipped the jacket, it would get caught in some stitching near the bottom of the neck. I exchanged the jacket, hoping it was just a fluke, but the second jacket had the same problem. A friend of mine got this jacket on the same deal here and he had similar problems but chose to live with it. I ended up returning this and getting a Marmot Stretch Jacket instead - I don't have the cool cinching feature on the hood, but the I don't have to mess with the zipper either.
