I just picked up this jacket after seeing a guy in the shop I frequent pick one up. I hang around the shop counter a lot and see a lot of the product as it gets sold. The first thing I noticed was how thin the jacket was. I admit, I was a bit curious as to it's efficiency being so thin, but after trying it on, I realized it served it's purpose: It keeps you dry. It looks great, is very very simply in looks, and boasts the classic Simms logo across the left breast. I didn't need to wear it when I purchased it so I folded it up and rolled it up into the hood and packed it away into one of my backpacks smallest pockets. Light-weight, stylish, and effective- two very warm and dry thumbs up! J

This jacket is one of my favorite Simms products it is super light and compact you can pack it into the smallest space and it is 100% watertight the velcrow on the cuffs completly lock out moisture and the hood adjusts so you hardly notice its up most hoods drive me crazy this light jacket also works great just as a wind breaker and is super afforadable.I would say it is a must have.

The minimum shell jkt that everyone should have. Excellent value and protection from wind and rain.
