- Is this jacket fully waterproof?
- Yes. The two-layer DryVent membrane and sealed seams keep rain out in normal use. It is water-resistant, not a drysuit, so heavy sustained downpours can eventually soak through.
- How does it compare with a Gore-Tex shell?
- It blocks rain and wind similarly but breathes less and is heavier. Gore-Tex shells cost more and vent better on hard climbs; this one is the simpler everyday option.
- What can I layer under it?
- The relaxed fit takes a fleece or a light puffer comfortably. Size down if you want a trimmer look over a base layer only.
- Does it have pit zips?
- No. Venting comes from the front zip and the adjustable hem and cuffs, so it can feel warm during hard exertion.
- What sizes does it come in?
- XS through 3XL, with a center back length of about 27.9 inches. Check the size chart, since the relaxed cut runs roomy.
- Is the fabric recycled?
- The lining is 100% recycled polyester, and the mono-material design is intended to make recycling easier at end of life.
