Coming from NZ I wanted to get a raincoat that would last, and avoid the ‘damp’ feeling I was getting from my high-end Gore-Tex jacket. This nailed it. The fit was generous (I sized up ) it’s functional and I can feel the solidity and quality of the construction.
By avoiding some of the bells and whistles the competitors have on their jackets in this bracket Hooke have managed to create a really functional watertight everyday jacket, that will also fare well on a hike/bike ride (boo-yah for the under arm vents!).
