Reviews & Ratings for Montane Aero Event Pullover - Mens — 2 reviews — Page 1

I bought this back in April and have had the chance to really beat on it and put it through the wringer. Perfect fit, I bought the Medium and I'm 5'8 150lbs. Great price on CampSaver, but I'd pay the full ~$400 for it. eVent in my opinion is the best waterproof/breathable system out there. In terms of waterproofing, it's equal to Gore products but for breathability, it blows everything else out of the water. I own this pullover and a pair of eVent Anhu day-hikers and under heavy exertion, they breath incredibly well...far better than anything else I've owned.

Standout features: The cut for the arms/armpits allows for a TON of movement without having the rest of the shell shift around. I can simultaneously reach both arms straight up and the bottom barely comes off my waist. The hood fits great over a winter hat and bike helmet. I do wish the waist had a manual cinch, but this built-in elastic one is designed quite well. The asymmetrical zipper is great for chin/face comfort...no beard rubbing/pinching! When I can, I spend every possible minute outdoors, so this for me is mainly a super functional piece and that drove the purchase...but having a stylish design never hurts, and this is for sure a handsome shell.

Only con: the vents of the back of the shoulders CAN allow for water to come in BUT ONLY when your back is to a very strong wind and it's pouring rain. During a Nor'easter with 35mph sustained, 50mph+ gusts, and heavy rain, I stood in between two buildings at work...

It fits perfectly (small 6'1" 147) Nice details and construction. I'm very satisfied with purchase. Kangaroo pocket seems a little small but probably not for what activity it is designed. Vent in back are hidden and higher up on back.
