Great rain jacket for the money
This jacket is excellent value! It packs really small, weighs nothing and protects against wind and rain. Took it out on a hike and was very pleased witht the performance. I would highly recommend this product.

Packable Lightweight Jacket
I purchased this jacket for a trip to Europe and it turned out to be everything I was looking for - lightweight, packable, and windproof. This jacket really came through when we got caught unexpectedly in a windy, downpour in Paris. It took up no room at all in my day pack and was much more convenient than an umbrella. I especially liked the adjustable waist drawcord for keeping out the wind.

Great light weight rain jacket
I got this rain jacket for a backpacking trip, so I wanted something very light weight. It is super light, but still good quality. It's comfortable and I like wearing it. I am about 5'5" and 128lbs and a Medium fit perfectly with room for layers underneath. I'm very happy with the jacket, expecially for the price.

Meh...
Looks & feels like it would work in a pinch. Definitely lightweight and easily packable. Zipper stuck in several places. The shape is kind of big and boxy - not very feminine. Might have kept it as a back up if it were half the price.

Women's Microlight Jacket
I purchased this jacket for my daughter on sale. Received a different color and jacket in error. I had to return it. Altec quickly sent the correct order. My daughter would recommend it to others.

Very nice jacket, unfortunately had to return it for a larger size. I bought this for my wife and the cinder color looked like a beautiful brown, in reality it is a greenish brown, not bad, but not exactly as pictured. Going with black next.

Love it
I'm 5'7 with an average build and long arms and I ordered the medium. It fits perfect. As other reviewers have stated, it doesn't breathe super well but I love the pouch. The jacket easily fits in a purse or backpack.

Great rain jacket
Fits well, looks good, very easy to pack and perfectly rain proof. Just got it a couple weeks ago and have already used it a lot. I like it so much and it's so easy to pack that I've found myself bringing it along even when there's only a slight chance of rain.

Gets the job done
If you're looking for a rain coat simply to keep you dry without anything extra this is it. I got this for college to wear to class on rainy days and it's perfect. It stows in a tiny bag when you don't need and keeps you nice and dry when you do need to pull it out. But if you're looking for a multi-purpose everyday kind of coat, this isn't it. It is better for layering because it's just a shell and it doesn't breath too well. But overall, a great coat for travel or just for rain!

perfect shell
I needed a light rain jacket to wear over my regular jacket or clothing and this was perfect. I was looking at different shells and I liked this one the best because it had elastic around the wrists and I needed something that I could wear while using my hands without it getting in the way. Perfect for what I was looking for.

perfect for college student
My college student daughter wanted something to carry with her to class to wear over fleece for wind and rain. She loves this jacket...bought it in two colors.

nice jacket
very lightweight, packable and easy to layer underneath. Purchased the coat for my mom--she thinks the sizes run small...

Great for light rain
Great, light jacket for unexpected wet weather. I use when biking, running, hiking, etc. Packs down light. I wear another one for around town to work because I don't want to wear the one I sweat in. Downfall for this one is that there are NO pitzips. I wish it had it for when I go running. Maybe I'll make my own :)

expensive for just a rain coat
Its nice, it does what its suppose to. I feel that $50 for a rain coat is way overpriced. But I needed one, what can you do. - I like that I can roll it into a bag and throw it in my purse.

Perfect for its purpose
This light weight, easy to pack rain/wind jacket was very handy on our trip. Great color, perfect for rain and winds. Only area that I'd like to see changed is the way the hood fits - not flexible to size and latch doesn't hold well. Otherwise, loved it.

Great rain jacket/windbreaker
This jacket meets my expectations for a rain jacket/windbreaker. I usually wear a S or M top and bought this jacket in a M due to previous reviews. It fit perfect (and I have long arms). I am happy with this jacket. It fits well and folds up into a handy little bag which makes it easy when traveling. I have yet to wear it in the rain, but it works well as a windbreaker.

Perfect for the Need
this doubles as a windbreaker and rain slicker. It doesn't SOUND loud every time you move like some of the outdoor fabrics these days! fit is 'forgiving' ie near flattering. Can use for a night out in the City or weekend camping in the boonies compact for travel too.

Awesome rain jacket
It works for the rainy season in SF where I live. With the light weight, it's very convenient to keep in my purse or backpack. Easy to dry out and you will never get wet in the soaking rain wearing this jacket!! I bought it size M (normally I wear size S), it is perfectly fit me;)

Runs a tiny bit small
Nice jacket, attractive design, but runs a bit small. I usually wear an extra small or small in shirts, and since this is a shell I obviously planned to layer it over a fleece jacket or other similar layer. It's cut just a little tight in the shoulders, and the sleeves are just a little short for comfortable layering. I would have returned it for a medium, but they were sold out.
