By ActiveGalwithDog from Durango, CO on 07/01/2009 Pros: Durable, Lightweight, Waterproof Best Uses: Backcountry, Hiking Describe Yourself: Advanced Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a great lightweight jacket for the price. I live in Colorado where it generally only rains hard for a short while, and this coat works great! I don't know if it would hold up to Pacific NW rains, but if you live there, you get Gortex. Very light and packable - and the beet is a stylish color. This will be my backpacking rain jacket for sure. It could breathe better, but again, for the price, it's great! Feels true to size.
lightweight but not warm enough By Tenebrae from Denver, CO on 07/01/2009 Pros: Adjustable Hood, Comfortable, Lightweight, Stows Easily Cons: Compression Sack Needed, Not Warm Enough Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The light weight and small stuff size are ideal for backpacking, and the bag was very comfortable.
However, camping in late June at 11,000' (in a tent, using a 1/2" ground cover, wearing thermal UW) was cold!
Great for low altitude summer use.
By Maven from Minneapolis, MN on 06/29/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Stylish, Waterproof, Wind Resistant Best Uses: Casual Wear, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Ordered a size up, as recommended, and the fit is fine--a bit long in the arms and blousy up top, but I do like the extra length in the body. I'm 5'8" and the coat completely covers my butt, which is a bonus where shedding water is concerned. Super light, a great eggplant color, great value.
By KAS from Chicago on 06/29/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight, Stows Easily Cons: Compression Sack Needed Best Uses: 3 Season Camping, Backpacking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great short bag. Luxurious cloth and comfy down. Rich color and nice stretch. Light and compressible, as a down bag should be, but at a great price. For a 30 degree bag, I'm not sure what I'd change even if price were no object. The integral little zipper storage pouch is too small to be worthwhile--even a headlamp is too tight a fit. I'll be adding a waterproof compression sack, since included stuff sack is fine, but neither waterproof nor compressable.
By k-ram from ny on 06/29/2009 Pros: Easy To Set Up, Fly Works Well Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: no complaints- too early for anything else

A nice warm weather rain jacket By Steelygumby from North Bennington, VT on 06/26/2009 Pros: Lightweight, Stylish, Waterproof Best Uses: Casual Wear, Hiking Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The color "cocoa" is actually a deep burgundy/purple - very attractive, but not really brown. Also, the hip is cut rather narrowly. If you have wider hips, you may have some difficulty (it does have a zipper that opens at both ends, though).
