What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing gives a weight of 2.02 kg, while the title describes the jacket as lightweight. Customer feedback also describes it as very light, but the listing does not clarify the weight basis or garment size. Feedback reports mixed fit and disappointment about the lack of internal pockets, so check sizing and pocket layout if these matter to you. The listed waterproof and breathability claims are manufacturer descriptions, not independently verified performance measurements.

Less suited to
