      Comments about Sierra Designs Microlight Anorak - Men's:

      I live in Southern California, sunny normally, I've been carrying this jacket around in my backpack just in case it started to rain. It's small and light so didn't take much space.

      Well, after a year and a half of carrying it around, it rained. It wasn't even a heavy rain, light but constant. After 30 minutes, I was SOAKED. Not a dry spot on me. Good thing I was close to home.

      DO NOT rely on this product, it will not keep you dry.

      • Fit:
      • Feels true to size
      • Sleeve Length:
      • Feels true to length
      • Chest Size:
      • Feels true to size

      Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Sierra Designs Microlight Anorak - Men's:

        I wore this jacket hiking/climbing up Flatiron in the Superstition Mountains in Arizona. It was pouring rain with flash flooding and extremely windy. It kept me as dry as a lightweight jacket could. The only complaint I had is that I generally wear a medium and it was too short in the torso and sleeves so I exchanged it for a large. Another hiker I was with had the jacket version and was happy with it as well.

        • Fit:
        • Feels too small
        • Sleeve Length:
        • Feels too short
        • Chest Size:
        • Feels true to size

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about Sierra Designs Microlight Anorak - Men's:

          The coat looks and feels great. I bought it one size larger to ensure it would fit over layers, but it otherwise feels true to size. It works well in keeping water out in light rain, but I haven't tried it in more extreme conditions. It packs up light and small.
