Have been looking for a new black jacket for some time. This storm jacket is perfect. It's light weight, weather proof and can easily be folded into a small package for travel. I also like the zippered underarm areas and the multiple pockets.
This was more of a thin shell than I'd expected. I wanted something more substantial, so I'll be returning it. But for the money, I'd hoped it would have a little more heft to it, even without insulation.

Thank you for sharing your comments. We’re sorry that you were disappointed with this product. The shell is meant to be lightweight and packable for backpacking. You may be interested in our Gore-Tex Stowaway Jacket, which has greater heft and a mesh liner.

After 1 month, I am very happy with this jacket. It is lightweight and does an excellent job of keeping me dry. A lot of thought was put in to the details such as pockets, hood and sleeves. For the price it is a great value and perfect for the Seattle climate.
