    A great jacket to replace my 20 year old Moonstone. Pros: Price Material Cons: Strange cut in the sleeves - short (I suggest one buys a size bigger than normal)

    I bought this jacket primaryly to use as a shell when skiing on not so cold days. It works very well for that purpose. I did not notice any moisture build up inside or any uncomfortable clammy feeling. I also wanted to use it as rainy day jacket here in Florida, again it has performed well with that. I have noticed no leaking and it keeps me dry. As a bonus I found it to perform pretty good on colder days when paired with the proper mid and base layers. The fit is not loose so there is a limit the amount of layering it can handle. The only cons where the pit zipper sometimes snag on the sleeves, more annoyance than anything else. The hood could have been a little larger as it just barely covers my helmet when skiing.

    My husband chose this jacket after reading multiple online reviews of several different waterproof jackets. It got very high reviews, and now we know why. The jacket is very well made with sealed seams and zippers, and it has some strategically placed, monkey fleece lining in the back of the upper arms, and across the shoulders, which adds extra padding for carrying a backpack, without being overly warm or bulky. This jacket also has pit zips, and an attached hood with adjustable drawcords. It is not lined, and is cut roomy enough for under layering with a fitted fleece or thermal jacket, without being bulky. My husband is 5'6" and 155# with a muscular build and broad shoulders. The size Medium fits him perfectly.

    I'd tried all different kind of jacket, but I had always something to complain. Not on this jacket. OK, it isn't really warm, however, it has a furry inside which is very unique for this kind of jacket. Snow stopper is also included.

    Asked on 7/5/2012 12:00:00 AM by charalampos from Cyprus
    • Answer Its definitely possible, I would probably not recommend it, but with that said I haven't tried to run in a Dry.Q Jacket. I hope this helps.....||I know for a fact that Dry.Q is definitely breathable enough to attempt to run in.
