Solid rain shell
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Solid rain shell that has a pleasing tactile feel. I like that it has three features that are not normally found together: pit vent, chest pocket and no Velcro zipper front with water proof zipper.

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.
