What owners are telling us.
Buy this when very low carried weight, compact storage, and credible rain protection are priorities. It has performed well in real rain and wind, and owners generally like its fit and breathability. However, backpack friction caused severe localized wear for one hiker after a single wet day, so it is a risky choice with an abrasive or poorly matched carrying system.
Buy if
- You want a compact waterproof shell that is easy to keep in a travel or hiking pack.
- You need rain and wind protection without a heavy or clammy-feeling jacket.
- Your backpack carrying system does not create concentrated friction across the upper back.
Skip if
- You expect repeated rubbing from a stiff or abrasive backpack carrying system.
- You need established long-term durability under loaded backpack use.
- Shoulder fit is difficult for you and you cannot try the jacket before buying.
