In short
Good for
- Hillwalkers wanting a light 3-layer shell with big pit zips for heavy rain and hot, hard-working days
Strengths
- Decathlon quotes a 3-layer 25,000 mm (Schmerber) membrane with sealed seams and waterproof zips
- Weighs 440 g in size L, Decathlon's figure
- 42 cm side openings; a buyer calls the pit zips massive and says he stayed dry in torrential rain and sleet
- Six pockets: four outer zipped and two inner
Weaknesses
- The 440 g weight is given for size L only
- Fit runs snug: buyers say to try it over your thickest layers or size up (Decathlon reviews)
- One buyer found the pockets small, the chest ones especially (Decathlon review)
- Decathlon rates breathability at 15,000 g/m2/24h on the JIS test
