Stratoburst Stretch Rain Jacket - Men's

Great

Fantastic water repellence, lightweight for warmer weather, easily packed, and good storage options via the pockets.

It's really compact and nice quality. I'm not surprised given its outdoor research but I continue to be impressed.

Great jacket - 2 major flaws

Great jacket but there are 2 major flaws that will probably get me switching back to my Helly Hansen Loke 2.0. 1. Sleeves are 5-6 inches too long. Sleeves shouldn't go too much onto your hands. My fingers don't even make it to the end of the sleeves with my hands down at my side. Makes wearing it very uncomfortable when there is that much extra fabric flapping around your hands. Then it just bunches up on your arms. 2. The cuffs on the sleeves are too large is you don't have thick cuffed gloves on. The opening is so large that your hand just swims in the opening. Must close all the way just the keep them on your wrists. Since these 2 things can't be tailored on a jacket like this, it makes me very disappointed in it since everything else is great. The stretch and fit in the shoulders and chest are great.

light for every challenge

I live in Portland OR and I need a rain jacket for everyday life. This Jacket is great in the outdoors, but isn't too hot or steamy to wear inside. The pit zips are perfect if you are getting down to business and need to vent . the material is amazingly soft and helps to make it your favorite gear at a grasp out the door. large fits me great, 5'7 170lbs.

Go to rain jacket

This is a fantastic lightweight and packable rain jacket. Very nicely constructed with sealed seem zippers as. Highly recommend to anyone wanting something light and not at all bulky. I use it a lot on the river fishing for those cooler early mornings to break the wind and obviously it protects from the rain.

Great rain jacket

Bought this last year for a week-long trip on Main Salmon. Had one night and long day of heavy rain. This jacket performed very well. Good product for great price.

Fantastic shell

Comfortable, soft material, pliable but strong, relatively quiet compared to others.

Great jacket for NW golf

I bought this jacket for a February trip to Bandon Dunes. I am 6 feet 2 inches tall and usually have to go up to an XL for non golf jackets but the large fit me perfectly and let me swing freely. It also kept me completely dry in the rain and wind at Bandon.

Great jacket

I love this jacket in every way. Very lightweight but strong and stretchy. I've worn it for 10+ days backcountry skiing so far in wet snow and rain on 8 hour days, it doesn't let any moisture through and moves with your body extremely well. This is a great jacket for any level whether it be an expert or beginner. Just keep in mind it is thin so it could rip easily if out through extreme conditions.

Fantastic! Arms a Little long

Used for two weeks in Bogota, Colombia. Cooler temperatures with some heavy rain occasionally, light rain frequently. Loved this jacket for both scenarios. The arms are long though. Everything else fits well and it’s great for layering over a down jacket. Looking forward to using this more.
