 Inexpensive and Convenient as Heck!Sep 02, 2009
By Martin A Hogan
"Marty From SF"
After a drenching rain with my older Patagonia jacket, I had to purchase a new one. The Sierra Design Hurricane version is an amazing bargain. The price is right and it isn't water-resistant - it's waterproof! The jacket is doubled stitched 100% nylon, yet there are two arm-pit zipper flaps to allow for breathing. The zippers are those heavy duty plastic that won't ever bind on you. There are also three large nylon mesh pockets accessible from the outside and inside. The hood and waist both have adjustable tightening straps that can be pulled tight with one hand. The wrists can be tightened with Velcro flaps and the hood can be drawn tight to allow just your nose and eyes to be visible. Best of all, it compresses into its fist-sized carry bag with a tightening strap.
For kicks, there is even a "conversion chart" inside the jacket for temperature (Centigrade and Fahrenheit), length, weight, volume and distance in both English and Metric. Available in only black and red, unfortunately.

 waterproff heavenMar 30, 2010
By Terry C. Woodard
i purchased this item for hiking in the great Northwest, i have been on many hikes with drastic weather changes and was not prepared. after originally buying this jacket 2 years ago and for TWICE the price at retail store, me and my hiking buddies ordered 6 of them(2 each), i now own 2, 1 in my pack, other in car for emergency use. the jacket is very well made, stitched great(and taped over stitches), with zippers for venting(under armpits),draw string hood, 2 pockest and a chest pocket are very nice as well as a inside the jacket pocket with a list of metric conversions from weight, temp, distance sewn right on the inside pocket...which was unexpected but nice, the stuff sack it comes in is greeat, about the size of a large soup can(can crunch it down to soda can size with additional string if you choose), very light weight, drawstrings to keep wind out, excellent buy, im 6ft 250lb and got the XXL if they offered a XXXL i would have gotten it, seems to run a litlle small, but for the price, you'll stay dry. remember this is a windbreaker, provides little insulation, just made to keep wind and water out

Husband loves it!Feb 10, 2010

He likes to play golf, and sometimes gets caught in the rain. He had a waterproof jacket that a friend bought him, but it fell apart. He asked for a new one for Christmas. In the middle of January he was able to give it a full test run. His company insisted on playing golf in a solid rain. He put this on and it kept him dry the whole game. Other players were not so lucky, as many didn't even have rain gear. He's very happy with this jacket.

Planning on trekking through parts of China. This jacket is easily packable and takes up very little space. For this price would recommend product.

Could not be more pleased!May 17, 2010
By J. Johnson
"BelieverBob"
This is a bargain. This is a well-made rain-proof jacket and the person who designed it did an excellent job. The only exception would be the claimed hood-compartment (paraphrasing), it's awkward to try to store the hood in this type of pouch-thing but I leave it out and open regardless. Nice vents that you can open in the side sections, if desired. I highly recommend this jacket.
