Just like the title, a quality lightweight jacket with great functionality. Lots of thought and soldier input into producing this jacket. Keeping in mind, this is an outer layer/shell so there are little thermal properties, but it is full of pockets, vents and functionality. Will easily roll/fold and fit into a pouch to always have in hand. There is no hood, but those who know, know you don't need (get that hood off your head!) the hood ;-)
Not much too this, it’s a great windproof and shower proof option, zip vents under arm are ideal for spring / summer. I actually use this as a liner in heavy rain, putting my hooded rain jacket over this.
Waterproof and light, excellent as a pocket stuffer in your tramping pack or day pack for those unexpected weather changes or out on your bike , fishing or out walking.
Its light enough for me to use out running when the weather looks like its changing or if there is a brisk Wellington southerly cooling things down. a hood could be useful but then if you need to be using a hood I'd be looking to be wearing a Gore Tex Parker instead.
Over all its a great piece of kit I'm glad i have one now !
Very waterproof and light as stated.
Lack of hood makes this pretty limited unless you are going to be hunting with a helmet on!!!! Be better buying MVP Jacket with hood - Product Code: WET1005-N on this website for a bit more.
The matching over-trousers (Not sold on here currently) are brilliant.
