Questions & Answers
In the event the jacket isn't water-resistance rated, it is a low quality product. It is important to note that the water rating for fabric type jackets varies depending on the tech of the fabrics despite the DWR factor, and seams especially at the joints where water typically pours down are also a factor. This is where it will seep in even with a light drizzle if you leave it for 30 minutes. They test this in a tube and see the amount of water that must be absorbed into the fabric to reach the rating. 2,000 MM is the lowest number possible, and up to 40,000MM is the maximum. The average jacket at this price point has a water rating somewhere between 2,000 and 5,000 mm and none of the seams are taped or fully taped. Unless those specifications are included in a description, waterproof in a description is meaningless.
The bag has four pockets, two of which are zippered.

Selected User Reviews For OTU Men's Lightweight Waterproof Hooded Rain Jacket Outdoor Raincoat Shell Jacket for Hiking Travel
I bought two of these, one for my wife (S) and one for myself This is a great idea. Their lightweight, flexible, and soft properties make them ideal for sports. Obviously, the shirts are water-resistant- They have been used as we have. The jackets do not look like heavy jackets, but rather light ones. There is only one con I cannot believe how long the sleeves are! On the (S) the sleeves are about 2 inches longer than normal, and on mine (L) the sleeves are about 5 inches longer. They make them so they look that way, why? I took the shirts to a tailor who shortened the sleeves to the right I love these coats as much as my husband. As a simple jacket, this bag can also be worn when it is not raining.
As much as I thought it would run small on me, it actually fits a little roomier than I anticipated. We are very impressed with how well the waterproofing is There is enough room in the pockets for whatever stupid things I decide to carry. *Additional note The jacket kept me warm and dry as I fished in the rain and waddled in the mud.
In addition, This coat is fantastic. In fact, it is lightweight and The coat is wetted but not wetted by the water that falls on it. The soak is zero. That's what I love about In my price range, I have been unable to find a jacket that is waterproof. It is impossible for me to afford gortex since I am a preschool teacher. Then why did it cost so much? Taking it to work every day makes things so much easier, and if it rains while we are outside, if I have to take the kids outside, it is much more tolerable. I am in love with.
It is a good raincoat for the price, but be careful. There is no lining inside this jacket since it is described as a "shell. " This jacket's lining was deliberately designed to keep water from getting in. Rather than keeping the interior warm, it keeps the rain out. Let me tell you a few things. The program does a wonderful job of achieving that. Over a sweatshirt, it works perfectly! I bought it in an XL.
My height is 5'9" and my weight is 165 pounds, so In my opinion, it is a good fit. While power washing on cooler days, I have worn it so far and have not experienced any leaks. It's the design of the sleeve closure that drives me crazy. There is a very poor design in terms of the placement of the Velcro on my wrist. The attached photo shows the location of the facility. As far as returning the jacket is concerned, I will ask my wife to resolve the issue so I do not have to risk the trouble of returning it. There should be more Velcro or move the current piece to allow room for layering. The jacket has room for ample sleeve room and is easy to wear. I would've given this jacket 5 stars if they had just added more Velcro.
This jacket seems to be a decent lightweight. Unless you bundled layers of clothing underneath, it wouldn't keep you warm, but nevertheless, it was light enough to let you bundle layers underneath. It seemed to work for my son, but I am not sure how waterproof it actually In my attempt to mimic a typical Florida rainstorm, I pushed my son in the pool while wearing the hat and his clothes were soaked from head to toe when he resurfaced.
Usually I have too short sleeves with things, but this one fit just great for me, little short on the tail end for a raincoat, but I still liked it. I'm tall and have long arms, so I usually have trouble finding things to fit me in the sleeves. Color is awesome, it's actually neon green, not yellow as I'm used to seeing, but this one is green instead of yellow. In spite of this, the bag is not Initially, I thought the weak point would be in the way the hood zips off the jacket, which is in fact the area of leakage, however, if you look at the photos you'll see that it also leaks where the seams are around the shoulder blades. The rain poured down for about an hour and a half when I went out The battery only lasts 10 minutes, it is less than two months old, I am really sad it does not work. It looks cool, but I am afraid that it is not waterproof.
Fly fishing is my favorite activity on rainy days, and I go out most often on those Since we just moved to a temporary residence and had to store much of our possessions until our new house is being built, I forgot to put one of my three rain jackets in storage. I ended up searching Amazon for a low cost alternative (really, who needs four Despite not knowing the brand OTU before, the reviews revealed a decent jacket, and I fell in love with its gray camo color, so I took a chance on it. The quality and construction of this jacket impressed me, especially for the price. This is what I would call a medium weight rain jacket because it will shield from the wind and rain and act as an insulator. Among the two that I have are lighter and more compact than the other, and the third one is slightly In terms of weight and bulk, this fits right in between them. In addition to the quality of the materials, the stitching is excellent as well. A hood and collar (neck gaiter) made of well-designed material that can fit over my waders easily are well constructed. The product I purchased is just what I was looking for.
