Just Right
It's amazing how this jacket can repel water and not make me get hot. So now when I put this on in the morning while the weather is cruddy I don't have to worry about burning up if the sun decides to peek out.

Great jacket
Love this jacket! It is so light. I love that it is water and wind proof. I bought a Denali NF fleece and soon learned after wearing it on windy days, that it was not windproof. So I found this and it is perfect. I had sizing issues - if you want to wear this jacket over a T-shirt go with your normal size; however, if you want to layer - I strongly suggest you get the next size up.

excellent rain jacket
This is an excellent rain jacket. lightweight, comfortable, and totally effective against the rain, even on the east side of the Big Island, HI, where the rains are present most of the winter. I wore my first one out and loved it so much I had to get another. My hope is that down the road when I need another one, in 4 or 5 years, they will still be available

Just what I was looking for
I bought this jacket to use as a summmer/fall rain jacket and I love it. It's thin enough not to heat you up when it's raining outside and versatile enough to throw a sweatshirt under if the weather cools off. Vented pockets and lightweight material make this jacket feel light and cool, and all the while you stay dry. I have the Indian Clay Red color, which I love. Enjoy!

Light weight and packable. Have only worn in light shower but the rain bounced off like pellets! If it didn't bounce off, it beaded up and I would shake it all off. It did not make me feel clammy like others but the true test will coming in late summer at outdoor sports practices in the hot humid SW MO rain.

VERY VERY GOOD !!
Great jacket but note that that jacket is mostly polyester and the apex aerobic fabric is only on the panels (the gray areas); hence the name hybrid. With that said, the mobility is of the jacket is excellent. The panels are on the front, back and sides give an adequate amount of stretch. I am 5'9" 160 lbs and the jacket fits me well. It's not too loose, but not tight enough where i couldn't wear a fleece under it.

Great jacket!
I purchased this over a month ago and got the first chance to really test it out this weekend. It was rainy, windy and I had a lot of walking to do. It stood up to the test and kept me dry and surprisingly warmer than expected. This is not an insulated jacket but suits me just fine as I stay warm. Very nice construction, fitted hood and vented to let you breathe. Going to buy my wife one now as well.

Good Value Jacket
I just purchased this jacket from Altrec. I picked the closeout Alder Brown color. I don't normally purchase anything brown, but the pricing was too good to pass up. I was surprised at how well the color won me over. It would look good on the trail and around town. I immediately got to tryout its ability to keep me dry and it excelled. Water beaded up like drops off a ducks back. Pit zips were helpful in regulating heat and you can hardly notice them visually when engaged. While I haven't used it for hiking or camping yet, this seems like a perfect stuffable jacket for those purposes. Some posters have said they don't like the white lining, but I kind of like the white inside lining. I'm guessing the reflective nature of the material, could help in a rescue situation? Velcro on the wrist offers a custom feel and the hood is expremely adjustable. This jacket layers well with light fleece for a super warm and wicking combination. I may use this jacket to ski in the near future and I'm looking forward to stuffing it with my camping / kayak gear this summer.

Blue Northern Killer
I work in a warehouse and when a northern hits the coast in Corpus Christi it gets cold going in and out of a building on a forklift. Only had to wear a lightweight fleece shirt and Tee shirt under the jacket. No wet clammy sweat either "breathes" and no bulk very easy to move in. The shape of the hood works great under a hardhat and keeps the rain out. Normally have to wear 2 or 3 layers of bulky clothes to keep semi warm. Have not tried to dance in it yet...LOL....

I like most everything about this jacket. Though I must agree with a former reviewer that it would be nicer if the lining color was not so starkly white. What works for me is that 1) It is lightweight. Which makes it easy to carry and easy to pack. 2) It's 3/4 length. The coverage is just what I need. 3) Closures at sleeves and neck make it safe from rain and cold. 4) hood is adjustable 5) color I chose (rust) suits me 6) pockets are deep

I FIRST PURCHASED THE MATCHING PANTS DURING A TRIP TO MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. FOR A GOLFING TRIP. I FOUND THE PANTS WERE SO GREAT AND DID A GOOD JOB OF KEEPING ME DRY THAT I WENT BACK TO THE LOCAL BASS PRO SHOP TO TRY AND PURCHASE A JACKET, ONLY TO FIND OUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE ONE. I THEN VISITED YOUR WEB SIGHT AND FOUND THE JACKET I WAS LOOKING FOR. UPON ORDERING THEM THEY WERE DELIVERED TO ME IN 3 DAYS. NOW I HAVE A COMPLETE LIGHT WEIGHT RAIN SUIT TO USE FOR NOT ONLY GOLFING BUT FOR SPRING AND SUMMER FISHING TRIPS AS WELL. IN FACT, WHEN I RETURN TO OHIO I PLAN TO ORDER A SET FOR BOTH OF MY SONS AND FOR MY 7 GRANDSONS AS WELL. OUTSTANDING VALUE FOR THE COST

The sizing was correct. the material performed as represented. The best things about this jacket are: 1. It totally protects you against the rain. 2. It is completely breathable. 3. It is so lightweight, you can take it anywhere or pack it anywhere(even in it's own pocket...which I have yet to figure out how to do)!!! 4. It has so many pockets and compartments. 5. The velcro closure over the zipper is very practical. I highly recommend this product and have even purchased another one in black. This is a typical top quality North Face product.

Amazing price!
Having searched for an 'affordable' Gore-Tex Paclite shell without success (no where near as affordable as these jackets) I did a little research on North Face HyVent material and decided that it was perfect for my needs. It really does pack down very well and is extremely light. Perfect for overseas travels. As for performance I have still not put it to a real test, but I have read numerous reviews on different sites and have hardly any doubts it will perform very well. I will post a follow up review once I have worn it out in the rain.

Scotland, England, Ireland
I bought this jacket at Macy's in New York (for considerably more than Altrec is charging for it) in the Filo Green, and since then have taken it on separate trips to Ireland, England, and Scotland. My father liked it so much he borrowed it on a recent trip to Australia for a month. It has served me fantastically on all three trips I took. It's extremely light and it packs nicely into the pocket (and the little bundle it makes can be squished even tighter). I have no complaints about it keeping me dry. When they say the hood is fully adjustable, they mean it; I have no trouble sizing it so that the hood keeps water out of my face, but does not restrict my vision. There is a built in semi-rigid "bill" along the top edge of the hood that really helps in this regard. The "pit vents" under the arms are fine. I've used them a few times when it was rainy yet quite warm, but most of the time I just don't notice they're there. One thing I love in particular about this jacket are the adjustable cuffs. I am very picky about my cuffs, and I don't like most elastic cuffs as they feel too restrictive for me. This jacket includes a long strip of velcro that lets you size the cuffs exactly to your comfort without any uncomfortable squeezing that you would get with elastic. The jacket is fitted so that you can easily layer up underneath it, but it won't be too loose and baggy if you're just wearing a t-shirt. All in all a terrific value, and recommended to anyone.
