What owners single out
Review 1 highlights poor breathability during rain, matching video reviewers' concern about the unbreathable material despite the jacket's thin profile.
In their words
“¡Excelente! Nada más que agregar, probada en 8 horas en la montaña, con el deshielo de las copas de las araucarias, que es prácticamente una lluvia intermitente, pero muy densa en algunos momentos, a pesar de aquello cumple con las expectativas y llegue completamente seco al final del día, además felicitaciones por la atención en la sucursal de Valdivia.”

“I am a big fan and collector of Fjallraven clothing and gear. I bought this jacket online and did not see it before purchasing it. Its a super thin and rubbery-like rain jacket. Yes, it is super light and almost paper thin. I wore it in a heavy rain while walking a mile and even though it has venting I found myself sweating under the unbreathable material. The jacket looks nice and it true to size”
