OTUMen's Lightweight Waterproof Hooded Rain Jacket Outdoor Raincoat Shell Jacket for Hiking Travel

I first purchased this good looking, well fitting and functional rain jacket several years ago, but then recently I left it behind at an airport. No going back to get it so I purchased the exact same jacket as a replacement. It served me well while I explored London for 17 days with several of those days being rainy and chilly. If you take off the hood it can almost pass for a sport coat. I especially appreciated the three zippered pockets, two on the outside and one on the inside. i could confidently put keys, phone, etc. into those pockets and not worry about the items falling out. It is lightweight, but durable, but it is not a jacket for warmth. You will need to layer underneath for that.

The media could not be loaded. Okay, I never got a chance to actually wear this in pouring rain just a light drizzle, so I decided to test it out with some heavy rain in my shower for a few minutes directly right on my head, now since I was using hot water in the shower you could definitely feel the temperature on the material, but as far as any type of water penetration or anything getting wet it works fine, and for the price you really can't complain, it's lightweight breathable, comes in a real cool winter camo color scheme, who has velcro around the wrist for a tighter fit to make it watertight ,zip up pockets, not to mention it'll keep you warm, I don't think this is a winter jacket but as far as the fall when it's raining and wet outside this will definitely keep you pretty warm, there is a liner on the inside of the jacket which definitely makes a difference as well, but I'm real happy that the extremely amazing price of this product doesn't affect the quality of this product, because usually you get what you pay for, but that's not the case with this product, so if you want to really good quality rain jacket, that has a warm liner, for colder weather, that'll keep you bone dry, especially for riding mountain bikes through the trails when it's raining, this is definitely a good deal, hopefully they'll make some different camouflage patterns, instead of just winter camo, what they need is woodland camo, now upon arrival there's definitely a couple of sewing strings little tidbits that you're going to have to take a lighter and kind of go over and fix yourself because it'll get in the way of the zipper, but it's probably because an assembly sewing machine is selling these jackets on an assembly line, it also has a concealed inside pocket, if you combine this rain coat with a heavy hoodie you're going to be good for the average cold weather conditions, but besides the little threads that are everywhere that you have to technically clean up with like a Bic lighter, this is definitely an excellent jacket, watertight, warm with an interior liner, had an excellent price.

This is nice and warm jacket and kept me dry during the rain. The fit was perfect for me as described in the sizing chart. Enough room to wear a heavy flannel shirt underneath and still be flexible.The only issue I had was with the zippers. They should be more heavy duty. The first jacket I got, the zipper failed after a few days but the replacement was quick and the new jacket has held up so far. For being an "active" ski jacket, i would assume the zipper would be able to handle more stress. I'm not a skier but the zipper just stopped zipping up. The pocket zippers are also 'weak' but i usually don't use them so it's not too much of an issue but if i want to zip them up, i need two hands (one to hold the zipper tight and another to pull the zipper). Only one hand is needed to unzip the pockets.

Purchased this for an Alaska cruise. I needed a lighter weight rain proof jacket that could be removed as the day warmed up. I appreciate the zippered hood that can be removed when not needed. The zippered packets are adequate for holding my passport and other ID's. The outside pockets are large enough to hold my gloves so I don't have to wear them all the time. Another feature is that I can roll the jacket up and put it in a backpack when I don't need it on. The length covers my fanny which is nice. Sleeves are a little long but have a Velcro attachment so they can be closed to prevent rain and wind from the entering the sleeve and keep the sleeve at the proper length for me. The jacket will fit nicely over a sweater or other shirt for layering for warmth.I always check any cloths I purchase online for seams, zippers, etc. This jacket is well made with no loose threads to pull seams apart. I expect to wear this jacket for several years. Highly recommend.

I should describe some concerns first. The hook and loop (basically Velcro) along the front zipper is so strong that I think it may rip the loop side off the weakly sewn patches. The pockets are weak. You cannot carry much weight in them. The exterior appears to be and has a quad pattern, but nowhere was it mentioned that the exterior is rip-stop it is manufactured. So is it? Who knows. I can attest it’s very water resistant. Look at is this way. The price point is low. The quality is equivalent. It’s not Northface or REI, but do you really always need to pay their premium prices for a jacket to run or walk in the rain? You don’t! This works.
