I am going to start with the things I like about this jacket. • The fit is great- it isn’t too tight and allows for layers under. • I love the color • The zipper seems durable And now for the things I don’t like • after 10 uses it has already lost its waterproofing around the wrists and chest. • The hood is awkward to adjust but so is every other rain jacket. I don't know if I got a lemon or if this is where rain jackets are heading in quality and durability. For the price of the jacket and its loss of waterproofing after 1 medium rain I don’t know that it is worth it.
I have briefly worn this in the rain, but it was lightweight, comfortable and roomy enough to layer over my nano-puff jacket and another thermal layer under that without being too tight. Without the layers, it's comfortable. The hood provides good coverage without covering my eyes or mouth too much, but just enough. I like the color (turquoise), although my husband and I are now sort of matching..... I'm happy with it.
Great jacket. It's a little big for hiking, definitely not ultralight or super packable, but its so comfortable to wear! I'm 170cm 63kg and the medium size is plenty roomy to fit my puffer jacket underneath and not feel restricted at all. It's waterproof, but wets out especially in contact areas after a while as all gortex things do.
I love this rain jacket. Perfect for Seattle weather! I ordered a Large so I could layer underneath and it’s a perfect fit for me. For reference I’m 5’3 with a 38in chest size. Sizing is accurate.
I liked the fit and pit zips of this jacket, but it did not keep my dry in the rain. I took it on a backpacking trip and had wet shoulders less than an hour after the rain started.
I ordered a medium and it fits perfectly, I even have room to layer. I've tested this coat in all kinds of weather and terrain, it's waterproof :) Love the color too!
This jacket is super lightweight and comfortable and will actually keep you dry! I have a narrow build but wider shoulders so bought a Medium and it fits perfectly.
I like the fit of this jacket, it's one of the few brands that suits my petite frame. Though this XS runs a bit big and the sleeves are VERY long!
Works super well! Fairly lightweight for how sturdy and waterproof it is. I take this on every hike/backpacking trip i do now :)
Great jacket. Just used it at Bryce canyon when a pop storm and high winds came in. The jacket kept me warm and did it's job.
