Looks and fits great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rain jacket looks and feels great. I like the slim-ish fit. I wore it in light rain and the water beaded off. I’m 5’9” 145lbs I got size small. The sleeves are a touch too long to compensate for layering. I’d say it’s perfect for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fit but unfortunately not water proof. I took it hiking in the rain this past weekend and ended up very damp. 2 miles into the 5 mile long hike is when the rain started, and the “waterproofing” held up good for 10 minutes, and then it didn’t. The rain no longer beaded off the jacket and instead was absorbed by the jacket, which made for a very wet and cold 3 miles of hiking. The jacket has not been washed or stored improperly such that the waterproofing would not perform as claimed

Lightweight, Breathable, and Quality

I love this rain jacket! It does not have the plastic bag type of feel that a lot of rain jackets have and you can tell it is high quality. I love the oversized chest pocket and all the Velcro and paracord adjustment points. This jacket does a great job keeping the rain and wind out. I also like that it is a little on the larger size to accommodate layers underneath it. I have an oversized Carhartt hoodie that I love wearing and this goes over it with plenty of room. Great product overall!

Not waterproof. I'm wearing this jacket daily on dog walks. If there is more than a drizzle the water soaks through, especially the pocket area

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had bought a large at first but it was way too big for me, but since I liked it otherwise I returned that one and bought a medium that fit me pretty well. It's very lightweight and packs well, plus the pockets and hoody along with the arm pit openings make it a very useful jacket to have. I'm in CA so I haven't tested its water resistance yet but I imagine it's good too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far the jacket has been very dry. It’s very easy to move around in , and feels light. However , it can be a little hot.

Wore out quickly

If you are looking for a solid raincoat that you can wear for years - this is not it. 1st few wears are OK; I stayed dry. But the more it lands in the back seat of the car or gets rolled up and stuffed in a corner, the water proofing wore out and it became a sponge. I've had it about a year. I was out yesterday in a moderate rain and the seam to the hood across the back of my neck felt absorbed and soaked in water. I was wet inside within 10 minutes. I paid a lot of money for this jacket and it failed the test of time.

Amazing windbreaker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unexpectedly probably one of my favorite windbreakers now. initially was looking for a slightly thicker and lined windbreaker or rain shell that I had bought from Columbia a few years back but this was way better. Very comfortable and form fitting. Enough stretch that it doesn't feel restricting even with another layer under. Lightweight, breathable, great quality. Have already used it for a local hike with 58 degree weather and some light rain and it kept my dry and cool. Had to go back and get a 2nd.
