Charles River Apparel Unisex Color Blocked Pack-N-Go, Men's & Women's Pullover Anorak

Love these pullovers. Can wear long sleeve under for warmth or tank for in between days. Good fit and quality. I have several colors. Medium fits great 5’7” and 180lb. I did have a rivet pop off under the arm of my black one while just walking tho

I don't normally write reviews, but I saw several negative ones because it's not "100% waterproof." I really like these jackets! I bought one a couple of years ago, and this is my second one because I liked the first one so well and wanted a different color. That being said, will it protect you in a torrential downpour? No. It will act as a windbreaker, and it will keep drizzle to moderate rain off of you. Will it keep you dry on a 10 mile run? Maybe, but not if it rains hard enough. But, this is a packable jacket. I have a packable jacket from The Northface that cost 5 times as much, and it also won't keep you dry in a hurricane! It's a great product, but you have to temper your expectations with common sense. If you want emergency rain protection in a thunderstorm, find a poncho that you like the style of, or try using a waterproofing treatment on one of these (I've not tried it, but it could help!). If you want a decent jacket that has some rain protection, you could definitely do worse than these!

Fantastic packable jacket with serious construction. I've had mine for over a year now and use it spring through fall. It is completely windproof and blocks some serious squalls on the Pacific and back East on Lake Ontario. The pockets are kangaroo enormous and will hold gloves, hat, headlamp, keys, flashlight, phone, wallet and a probably squall poncho I have worn it out in a storm over just a t-shirt just to see how it does in wind driven rain. It does fine for 30-45 minutes. Then the wet will start leaking in. If you frequently are walking in the rain keep a lil poncho in one of the huge pockets. There is room. It is NOT mountaineering equipment. It is not for hanging out Southeast Alaska or Upstate New York rain dumps! If you in a normal place and just out for a suburban jaunt with the dog, jogging, or popping in and out of the car shopping it will be just fine even in pretty sizable rain. It looks great. The fit is true to size so it is very comfortable. I sized up to wear both a hoody and a vest underneath in late fall. The color is fantastic. The hood is usable! One of my favorite jackets.

This windbreaker fits well. I've worn it in light rain a couple of times and it has done a good job of keeping me dry. It's light weight and easy to pack. My only quibble is the label flap on the back of the neck. For reason I understand, they didn't want to sew the label onto the inside of the back panel of the windbreaker. It would have created an unsightly seam conforming to the label on the outside of the back panel. This could also have been another seam that allows water infiltration. However, their solution was to sew an extra fabric panel on the inside that shares the seam between the hood and the back panel. Onto this they sewed all the labels. It actually looks very nice. However, when you pull this over your head, this flap, only secured on the top seam, often flips up outside of the neckline. It's easily tucked back in. But, it's a minor nuisance and something that could have easily been solved by printing the label onto the inside of the back panel fabric rather than using a separate label that requires sewing. If not for this, I would give it five stars. It's a very good product for the money, just not an excellent one due to a design decision.

I LOVE this jacket! The fabric is sturdy yet pliable, perfect for a carry along, just in case you need something light. It's roomy enough to wear over a sweater on a windy day, too. My favorite part is the fact that it folds up and tucks into it's own front pocket to make a nice little square that's easy to pack into a backpack or other travel bag.

Bought two of these for my boyfriend and I to keep in our hiking backpacks as emergency raingear for a 20 mile day hike. Did not have to use them for the rain that day, but they do work as an added layer for cooler temps. I did use it in the rain a few days prior and it worked quite well, however it was definitely not in a torrential downpour, soaking rain environment so I'm not sure how well these would hold up under those conditions. I feel like Gore-Tex is really the only thing that would keep one dry in weather like that, and you're definitely gonna have to pay a lot more for Gore-Tex products. For what it is, it worked well in minimal rain. It was almost like wearing an umbrella. I appreciate the way it packs up small inside the front zipper pocket. This is a good purchase for warmer weather as it's not very heavy and has a little bit of underarm ventilation. For reference, I am a 5' 8" woman, 170 lbs., size 12 and I went with the size Large. The Medium fit but the hood was not deep enough for me, and I generally like a little more room, especially if I would ever want to layer something under this. The sleeves were a great deal long, but rolling them up a couple times fixed that. My boyfriend is 6'1" and maybe 220lbs. The XL fit him well. I will say, the shoulders were different on the two colors we got. The color blocked version he has has raglan sleeves. The solid color that I got, did not. This might matter to some.

Best deal I've ever gotton. Bought 20 of them to outfit my softball team for rain gear. High quality. Folds up into a 7 inch by 7 inch square which easily in their back packs.

A little big . But perfect for women who are big busted . Comfortable. Water proof. Light weight. Lining is good .

i purchased this jacket because i love hoodies and with the warmer weather coming it will be to hot with a hoodie on. i absolutely love it. the material is lovey it is softish and i get many compliments on it and everyone asks where i bought it from. i have sent many of my friends your way to purchase them as well. i will be ordering in a different color soon. There is one thing for me, i have short arms and the arms are too long, but i just fold them under and that works just fine as the cuffs have and elasitc band inside. The rest fits just wonderful, lots of room if it was a chilly night and i wanted to wear a hoodie under it,

I bought a jacket for upcoming trip. It is see through and unlined although the description clearly states ‘flannel lined’. Don’t waste your money on this rubbish.

Material was much softer than I was expecting. Color is amazing and fir perfectly. Loved that it can be turned into a pouch with reversible zipper!

Great fit thanks. Goes over my puffer

I really like this jacket! It does everything I need it to for wind/water resistance - within reason. It's also really light and can be folded up nicely to go in a hiking bag on those uncertain weather days.
