The summary

What owners are telling us.

Buy this as a very light, packable running shell for wind and ordinary showers, provided you can tolerate limited storage and variable moisture management. Many owners stayed dry, including in a thunderstorm, but one reported rapid wet-through and several became damp from perspiration. Fit is usually close, with some owners needing a larger size for layers or a hydration vest.

Buy if

  • You want a lightweight shell for running, walking, cycling, or carrying for changing weather.
  • You prefer a close athletic fit and are willing to size up for layers or a hydration vest.
  • You can carry essentials elsewhere because the jacket has no practical front pockets.

Skip if

  • You need dependable protection for prolonged heavy rain where failure would have serious consequences.
  • You sweat heavily and require consistently strong ventilation during intense exercise.
  • You need built-in pockets, a storage pouch, or ample room without sizing up.
