Great Kayaking Foul Weather Jacket! By Kayak or Bust! from Connecticut on 03/29/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great design, the pockets on the side are pretty high, very water proof. I generate allot of heat, will probably be too hot unless cold out. Wish it had pit zips, but will definitely be part of my cold weather paddling gear. XL good for 240lb, 6'.
Perfect for Ohio's rainy winters. By sciototrails from Chillicothe OH on 03/03/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: With this jacket as the top layer you are prepared for the winter rains of Ohio.
Excellent for on and offshore use. By Mike from Benicia, CA on 12/03/2007 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Best Uses: Boating, hiking in rain, Paddling Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: An excellent paddling jacket that does double duty as a foul weather shell for hiking and all around outdoor use. Typical quality Patagonia design and construction with easily accessed pockets, and it can be worn comfortably over or under a PFD (personal flotation device). The bright orange color will certainly help make you more visible on the water. Whether or not this color is suitable everywhere else is up to you...
The only difference between this '06 piece and the current version is the Lotus logo on the cuff and label because Patagonia dropped that brand name for their paddling gear. Also, this is a full zip parka, not an anorak like the original Skanorak.
As far as sizing goes, I'm 5'9" 170 lbs. and the medium fits me perfectly.
