I bought this jacket after a long search. I have the Arc'teryx Fission AR jacket and I loved it! The fit is slimmer than most jackets. I have layered a capeline, and heavy fleece under and it works well. I am 5'10 and 210lbs so room is important and this jacket mixes a slim fit with the right amount of room. I took it white water rafting in early June in Colorado and it repelled everything the river threw at me. It also has a regular hood which isn't bad, but the hood fit well over my helmet. I bought this jacket because I wanted a lightweight jacket for spring and late fall. I couldn't be more happy. I also have the Outdoor Research Mentor jacket that has the Gore-tex pro shell and I don't really even use it because of this jacket. The only complaint I would have is that there are only two pockets. Adding a chest pocket would make this jacket a step better. Overall, it kept me dry when I needed it too. Good ventilation even without the pit zips.
