- Is the Antora jacket actually waterproof?
- Yes. It uses a two-layer DryVent membrane with a water-repellent ripstop face fabric, so it sheds rain and blocks wind. Seams are the weak point on any shell, so re-treat the DWR coating when water stops beading.
- How does it compare with the Patagonia Torrentshell?
- Both are two-layer waterproof shells at a similar tier. The Torrentshell adds pit zips and a more trim fit; the Antora is roomier, longer and simpler, with a high collar and Velcro storm flap.
- Does it run true to size?
- It runs loose and long by design, so most buyers take their usual size to layer over a fleece. If you want a closer fit over a base layer only, consider sizing down.
- Can I wear it for hiking in cold weather?
- Yes, as an outer shell over insulating layers. It has no insulation itself, and the two-layer build breathes less than pricier three-layer shells, so pace yourself on steep climbs.
- What is in the box?
- One jacket. It has an attached hood, two zippered hand pockets and a full front zip with a Velcro flap; no stuff sack is included.
- Is the hood helmet-compatible?
- No. The hood is sized for bare heads and adjusts with drawcords, so it will not fit over a climbing or bike helmet.
