I have to be quite impressed to write a review on a product, and here we are. Flat out, this is an absolutely must pack layer, and something I find myself wearing just about daily with working outside.
This is an uninsulated soft shell that breathes well while blocking the wind and keeping out a moderate amount of moisture. It's important that it breathes well so you don't overheat in the cold, and you can still wear it as a light rain jacket in the summer.
I just spent 3 days in a shoot ho...use wearing this as my outermost layer, constantly brushing up against CMU (cinder) block and brick walls, and the fabric has held up shockingly well. 10/10 for durability.
Understand that this layer does not provide insulation, but rather blocks the wind and the rain, allowing your insulating layers to do their job better.
It's also amazing over a base layer and a grid fleece for long movements with a ruck in cold weather. You wont overheat while moving, but it protects you from the nasty winter weather.
This is an absolutely essential layer for me.
Purchased this a few months back
I've used it primarily
EVERY day
As an outer layer on top of my echo hoodie and trailmix fleece
And it has proven its worth to me
Cuts most of wind
Is well water resistant
And can be worn alone when it starts to get chilly outside ,
Super comfy, the hood is great and ajustable
I'm a 5.6 and quite lean, small fits me perfectly
I really love this product and look forward to purchasing more from OR
I'm sold with you guys
The quality and attention to details
And... price is amazing
Thank you!!!!!
