This has quickly become my favorite "go to" jacket. It is the one I always want to have with me. The Polartec Power Shield has good breathability and easily sheds light to moderate rain. I love the fleece lining on the inside of the jacket as well. It's like they took a 100wt fleece and bonded it to the powershield. The hand pockets are nice and large and fleece lined. Nice touch! The only area of improvement I could recommend would be the addition of a hood and a bicep pocket like the Gamma MX. I used to scoff at the high price of Arcteryx products, but you really do get what you pay for.

Great product!Very breathable and it only weights 4oz! No excuse to not have a light rain jacket with you. Did not wet out in about an hour light to med rain. Cons: Wish it had hand pocket, was seam sealed and came in xxl to allow more layering underneath(I am a big guy) but then it would not weight 4oz, right? Easily fits in a back pocket folded.

OK, to be honest I had never heard of this company before. I was however looking for a jacket made of eVent and this is an incredible bargain! This jacket is a LOT more breathable than my Gore-tex Paclite one.I have not tried it in a heavy rain yet. I had read that these run somewhat narrow in size, so I ordered an XXL instead of XL and I am glad I did to allow for a fleece jacket to layer underneath. I wish the jacket had pit vents, but that is my only criticism. You guys are a pleasure to deal with as well. Fast shipping!
