Perfect layer for huffing and puffing. Cuts the wind, sheds light snow and gives the comforting illusion of shelter in steady precipitation. The anorak/poncho design takes me right back to the cotton drug rug throw overs we used to buy in Mexico. And it breathes! No swamping out. You'll know when it's time to grab a heavier layer, but for colder and rowdier conditions than you'd think, this over a base layer does the trick for miles. Really versatile wind jacket.

In these hot sunny California days, this jacket is perfect for keeping you protected from the snow and sun but not to hot. It is also one of my favorite fishing jackets I have owned as well. Especially when it is windy. Keep it up trew!

Huge fan of this jacket. It folds up so small in my pack, keeps me protected from strong ridgetop winds while on the move, with plenty of airflow to keep me from sweating too much. I throw my puffy and Stella shell over this when I get to the top, and I'm ready to go. This was a game changer for my layering game!

the upjack comes with me every day touring, and often in the springtime can serve as my downhill jacket as well.

This feels like someone re-designed the patagonia houdini in a way that actually has good style and fit.

Ultra light and packs down super small. Also great for going down in the spring, battles the elements surprisingly well. I love this jacket!
