Why We Like The Quasar Lite GORE-TEX Active Jacket

With super-light weather protection, harness-compatible pockets, and an easy-to-layer fit, this technical shell is an ideal outer layer for climbing in unpredictable weather. Thanks to the next-to-skin comfort and stellar breathability that GORE-TEX Active provides, this shell can easily be worn on during any rainy-weather pursuit—not just at the crag.

Great Jacket

Great fit. Lightweight. Exceptionally waterproof. Pockets could be a bit deeper. But overall fantastic jacket!

Fit runs small

I ordered this online. It said that the fit runs standard. I'm a bigger guy. 6'2" 260 lbs and a 2XL is tight around my chest and midsection with just a t-shirt on. No way I could wear this with a fleece. I'd say it fits more like a XL or large. Quality and weight seems really good, but since it's not offered in a size larger than 2X, I'll have to find something else.

Best light/waterproof jacket ever!

The Quasar Lite jacket is soft, comfortable, very light, and easily packable. Fits very well, with room for a fleece in cool weather. Have worn in the rain many times: totally waterproof and not sweaty. Very happy with this jacket!

Light yet Durable

Had an issue with my Stretch Ozonic and grabbed this. Holy cow - this jacket is insanely light and rather durable. I’ve put about 300ish rainy, muddy, sloppy miles on this jacket when gravel riding and it hasn’t missed a beat. Packs down into my bar bag with room to spare.

Perfect Packable Technical Shell

Perfect Shell, Perfect Fit, could just use pit zips to provide access to underlayers when in use

Great jacket, but needs improvement.

The lightweight Gore-Tex fabric is comfortable and packable. The hand pockets are cut too high and the jacket has no zippered chest pocket.

Great feel, bad smell.

Great material. Comfortable, package, waterproof. Unfortunately smells, almost like cologne, even after washing.
