Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice lightweight waterproof jacket. I took it to Vegas for hiking in the desert. It actually rained while we hiked. The light blue color was not heat adsorbing when it was sunny (and became hot)yet was waterproof and windproof when it rained (and quickly became cold). My sister was wearing it at the time and consquently stole it from me. I had to buy another one for myself.

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Love that it's waterproof AND so thin and lightweight. The pockets filling backward is a little weird, but it's nice not having bulk immediately in the front. Need to get through the learning curve of reaching in with the opposite hand. Not a huge deal.

Sleeve Length:
Feels true to length
Pros:
Lightweight, Waterproof
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The wire in the hood helps keep the rain off my glasses, but does make the jacket awkward to pack. I bought the jacket for short hikes and to keep in my bag for unexpected rain while running errands on my bike. So far it's held up well in the bottom of my bag, getting groceries piled on top of it, and has keep me perfectly dry during light rain, but there hasn't been a real downpour yet so I don't know how well the zippers will hold up under steady rain.
