Excellent brewathability

by Al, Verified Owner from MI, United States Written on November 1, 2020
So nice to not be in a plastic bag for someone like me that gets gore-tex soaking on the inside from sweating . It really works.
Of note, the storm flaps over the side zip open to the posterior. So if you hunch over in the downpour, or sit forward in a boat, the storm flap sluices the water in. Very odd choice they made. Also, only velcro holding front storm flap at top and bottom, so a side wind opens up the flap. Nice to not have the excessive velcro catching too much, but not great in the wind / rain.
Overall, though, fits as expected, good for active pursuits, light, and a delight.
Pros:
  • light, truly waterproof, good fit
Cons:
  • weird storm flap decisions
Best Used for:
  • hikes and active stuff
Would recommend: Yes

Seems fine, but noisy

by Logan, from MA, United States Written on October 21, 2020
This seems like a perfectly adequate waterproof shell that is relatively comfortable, true to size (maybe a little small), and comes in a pleasant, pine green color (Mediterranean), but I ended up returning it because it has the common shell problem of being rustly and noisy - not good for wildllife photography, though probably fine for most users.
Pros:
  • waterproof
Cons:
  • noisy
Would recommend: No
