Another awesome piece of kit from Artkis. Does what it's supposed to do. Worn it a few times in the rain and it's kept me dry. Light enough to bring on any trip and adds no bulk to the pack/suitcase. Can stow in a handy little bag thats included. The bag is not integrated like the stowaway shirt, but that's fine with me. Have gotten many compliments on the swedish m90.
I had the chance to actually put this to the test at a recent shooting match and it did as advertised. My torso and head stayed dry for the brief time water was falling from the sky. The front pockets are amazingly deep, deep enough to hold 2 FAL mags without any issue. I almost didn't bring the jacket because I only had the space in my bag for essentials. However, it rolls up small enough to fit, even when you don't think you'll have room (I am aware this is the rainshield coat and not the stowaway shirt, it still packs up small with no issues). Would recommend if these ever make it back to the website.
Here's the skinny.
+ Light weight
+Pack-able
+ Irish DPM
+ extra roomy for layering or even a plate carrier underneath. (I'm 5'8" and 145lbs chose size M )
This rain jacket is sleek enough to look like streetware while still being extremely functional. I have yet to try it out in the rain since it's been stupidly dry as of late. but I'll update the review after I have tested it.
