Reviewers praise
- Mesh interior lining keeps the jacket breathable and comfortable against skin
- Hood with brim provides full coverage without needing a separate hat
- Velcro storm flap over the zipper adds extra water protection
Reviewers push back
- No interior pocket for wallet or other items
- Hood does not detach or roll into a collar
- Not suitable for extended periods in heavy downpour
