Very nice jacket, warm and waterproof. Works great on colder days. The hood is large and fits a head with a hat and headphones. It got a bit pilled where the backpack straps go, but it still kept its waterproofness. After washing, it's worth re-impregnating it.
Lightweight kangaroo jacket sewn from durable nylon with Rip-Stop technology, featuring increased tear resistance. The interior is finished with pleasant to the touch microfleece, which effectively supports thermal comfort in changing conditions.
The hood, cuffs and lower edge are equipped with an adjustment system, which allows for a better fit and increased comfort while moving. Ventilation zippers under the armpits improve airflow, helping to maintain proper body temperature. On the left shoulder there is a practical pocket for small items, complemented by a velcro panel, allowing to attach patches, such as the Morale Patch. When folded, the whole thing fits into a spacious chest pocket for easy transport and storage.
The jacket's functionality is highlighted by four pockets:
- a classic kangaroo-type pocket,
- a spacious internal pocket at chest level,
- two pockets located on the shoulders,

The jacket is very good, but if you prefer looser things, you should choose a larger size, because if you buy your usual size, you won’t be able to wear a fleece underneath.

I tested the jacket in rain and light wind at around 8°C, wearing only a short-sleeved t-shirt underneath. Thermal comfort was at the highest level. I think it will even work around -10°C if I add a sweatshirt. The side vents can be fully unzipped, which makes it much easier to put on even over thicker layers. I managed to choose the right size right away, though the jacket definitely runs small. + The jacket is well made, very lightweight, and at the same time holds warmth excellently. + Completely waterproof, water beads on the surface, wind does not penetrate the material. + The soft fleece inside warms very well. + Adjustable cuffs and bottom of the jacket. + Vents on the sides and under the arms. + Spacious kangaroo pocket and a huge pocket accessible from both sides. + Large sleeve pocket easily fits a big phone and there's still extra space. + Roomy hood with a visor. - Pockets have fleece only on the body side. - The inner fleece sometimes catches on clothes (typical for this material). I'm very satisfied with the purchase – it's the perfect, lightweight, and warm jacket that will work both in the city and during hikes, fishing, or other forest activities ;D

It’s lightweight and keeps you warm, and the quality compared to the price seems really good. I chose size M (I’m 168 cm tall and weigh 50 kg) just by guessing and it fits surprisingly well. For now, I’m satisfied with the purchase.

The jacket is warm, comfortable, and lightweight. It doesn't get wet during normal rain and dries quickly if it does get soaked. It provides good protection against the wind. The outer material is smooth, and the inside has a nice, thicker fleece. The downsides include sharp zipper finishes, sleeves that are too short, and no way to hide or detach the hood.

I bought it for trips to the forest, but now I use it daily because of how light and warm it is. It’s good for everyday use or as a backup jacket. While riding a scooter in the rain, it didn’t get wet and protected well against the wind. In heavy downpours, it can get slightly soaked, especially the pockets. A downside is the lack of fleece lining on one side of the lower pocket for the hands, which can be uncomfortable if you want to warm your hands.
-
Great option for colder days and light rain. If it gets wet, it's not a problem—it dries quickly. It keeps you warm, and the armpit vents provide extra ventilation. Big plus for the hood and Velcro, although too bad there's only one. The downside is unprotected sharp zipper teeth that can scratch. Overall, it does the job.

The jacket is very nice, lightweight, and offers good protection against the wind. It handles light rain without any problems. The downside is the zipper pulls falling off, though you can still use them. In my opinion, the sizing runs small, although it's possible I just got such a piece. Aside from this minor flaw, everything is fine. I recommend it.
-
I bought it to compare with the British PCS and overall the differences are minimal. However: + it offers more color options than the surplus PCS + the hood, unlike the PCS, is lined with fleece - the hood cannot be tucked into the collar - the zippers are poorly made – their sharp edges stick out and snag on other fabrics.
-
I ordered it to compare with the British PCS. Overall, they are almost identical. Pros: a bigger selection of colors than the surplus version and a fleece-lined hood, which the PCS doesn't have. Cons: the hood cannot be stowed in the collar and very poor zipper finishes, which have sharp elements that might catch on other materials.

Well-made jacket from pleasant-to-touch material. However, you need to consider the specifics of the sizing. 179 cm and 90 kg – size XL fits.
-
A good, lightweight jacket ideal for transitional weather. I recommend it. It's worth choosing a size larger than usual, as the sizing runs a bit small.
-
Great hoodie. I’ve been using it for a long time and have no complaints. I definitely recommend it.
-
The jacket does its job – it's warm and light, but the sizing runs a bit small. I recommend it.
-
The jacket is solidly made, the only downside is the lack of insulation in the main pocket. With strong cold wind, gloves are necessary anyway. With a height of 185 cm and a weight of 75 kg, I recommend size XL.
