Great Jacket!
March 19, 2012
I have compared both this jacket and the Neoplume by Outdoor Research, due to seasonal sales I was able to have my choice of either of the two jackets for roughly the same price. The Havoc is, on paper, an upgraded Neoplume, featuring a hood and a Windstopper exterior. The other difference I noticed is the Neoplume features velco adjustable cuffs, where as the Havoc features elastic cuffs. The zipper on the Havoc is sort of finicky, there is a method to getting it to zip hassle free, where as the Neoplume has a more easily engaged zipper. The exterior material on the Havoc is more durable feeling than on the Neoplume, not to say that the Neoplume seems fragile, just not as burly. The Neoplume in XL weighs 15.9 pounds, and the Havoc weighs 19.4 pounds in XL. Either way you go you are sure to be pleased,but for my money the Havoc is a better value.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great valueGreat jacket, bad zipper

This jacket is very lightweight, blocks the wind, and breath well. It's warm enough in 35F windy condition with just a midweight baselayer underneath it. I loved the design of the jacket, but I think my jacket has a defective zipper. The bottom of the two way zipper is very hard to insert, and I had to fiddle with it for more than 1 minute to get it going. I am not sure if it's just one jacket, or it's the same for all of them. Anyway, I had to return the jacket.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Great value
