What customers say:
Customers overwhelmingly praise this jacket for exceptional warmth, versatile design, and high-quality construction. Many highlight its ability to function year-round through a detachable insulated liner and waterproof shell, replacing multiple outerwear pieces. Reviewers consistently note outstanding performance in extreme conditions—single-digit temperatures, 0°F skiing, snowy hikes—outperforming heavier coats and competing brands. The thoughtful fit accommodates diverse body types, with tall and larger frames finding excellent sizing options. Customers commend reinforced zippers, glove keepers, two-way zipper functionality, and meticulous stitching as premium details. A few mention the hood design feels oversized or that shoulders run snug when layering heavily. Overall, most consider it an exceptional value despite minor concerns.

Well made and Adjustable
I bought this to replace another rain coat. Well made and very adjustable. So far it is performing better than I expected. Hood adjustments are very useful. I don't wear a helm

Love it but get size larger than normal.
Weight: 250-260 lbs
Height: 6'1"
Size Purchased: XXX-Large
Used for: Travel, Relaxing, Casual or Every Day, Hiking
Just perfect for Spring weather. Rain, sudden cool down or Whatever change it is what you want.
My only advice is to buy a size larger than you would normally due to liner thick

I like how it looks. The size is good. It seems to be well-made and durable. The only thing I am dissapointed in is that it dosen't keep me as warm in 20 degree or below weather

This jacket replaces multiple other jackets. It protects from wind, rain and cold. The zip out lining makes it weable in multiple seasons. I'm 6' 2'', 205lbs and the extra long,

Too many possible adjustments
I cannot easily utilize all of the available features of this item without assistance: the features are too complex to adjust without assistance while wearing the jacket.

Excellent Design and Features
Multi-functional coat that offers a lot. Warmer than expected and very comfortable. Fit is perfect. Only thing I would have added is an inside chest pocket on the liner jacket.
