When early season trekking lures you to the trail despite springtime drizzle, the waterproof Revel Jacket will keep you protected without sacrificing breathability. Whether scrambling across talus fields or throwing the perfect skippers at your riverside lunch stop, the movement mirroring stretch fabric allows you to maneuver with ease and flexibility. A fold-away hood that zips into the collar offers adjustable weather protection and TorsoFlo hem-to-bicep zippers provide options for ventilation when you pick up the pace on the route to the summit. Additional features include external and internal front zip stormflap to keep out the blowing rain and a drawcord hem to cinch out the wind.

WaterProof? Nope.
Purchased a few yrs ago, had it on once in dry warm weather, was uncomfortable (clammy feeling against bare arms) because jacket does not breath well, hanging in closet since. Very light rain & cold a couple of days ago, perfect for this Jacket and a baseball cap. Had it over an ultra light down jacket, when I reached my destination approx. 2 miles away (35min walk), took it off and the exterior of my down jacket was damp. Very disappointed, garment seem well made with quality material.

Great jacket, with one issue, easy to prevent.
The zippers are very good, unlike those on Marmot rain jackets that I've owned. I was warned from a review on an outdoor products site that the front and pit zipper pull tabs, resembling small stones, are somewhat abrasive; the side ones could damage the jacket fabric . I wrapped them all in duct tape and have had no issues. The shaped pulls themselves are easier to grab than standard zipper tabs.

Good Rain Jacket
I worn this Outdoor Research in rainy days and felt very comfortable. This jacket has good breathable rate and does not make you in a sweat.

Comfortable and great fit jacket
My husband really likes this jacket. He purchased it for our mountain hikes and it folds up into his pack very nicely.

Absolutely the best parka out there
Pretty much the best parka out there. Right length, hood tucks away clean and easy, fabric is soft without being lifeless, yes it's waterproof, and it looks good on. Hubby owns two of these and I own 4 of the women's version (Reflexa jacket). Highly recommended. Can't say enough good things about it.
