Hooded Jacket

Thus is a stylish and very comfortable jacket! Kept me warm when wearily a long sleeve cotton knit top underneath on a windy day in the low 60’s. I wear a size 12 and the size Large is more than ample!

Pros: large pockets; snaps and zipper; stylish; good coverage; generous hood; breathable; robins egg is a beautiful color. Cons: Not packable; prefer raglan seams, but the dropped shoulder is also good. I've not worn it in rain it, but looks like it will work just fine in PNW.

The Perfect Rain Coat!

I bought this in the “blue” color which turned out to be muted gray/bluish shade. It’s pretty versatile. I originally bought a Medium to allow room for sweaters/layers underneath. WAY too large! Exchanged for Small & there’s ample room. (I still have to turn up the sleeves 1 roll) It’s longer in the back so derrière is covered. The tag says “water repellent” which is supposed to be a little better than “water resistant” fabric, but not waterproof. Haven’t been in a downpour yet, so can’t speak to the claims. It’s more substantial than a windbreaker but much lighter than a winter parka. The hood is almost too large/cumbersome when put up, making vision a little blocked, but a lot of hoods are designed the same.
