Drilight Rain Jacket

Great jacket. Waiting for real rain.

Having used this for a couple weeks, it's as advertised. I have used it more as a windbreaker and it has done great for that as well. It is a rigid shell. I have used Arc'teryx jackets and it's similar to that, but far less costly and equal in quality.

Fantastic jacket.. better than the BETA jacket from Arcteryx.

The Beyond Drilight Rain Jacket was a great find. The fabric is waterproof and seems strong, but not overly stiff nor delicate. Quality of stitching and seam welding is excellent. My size Small jacket weighs 16.4 oz. The Coyote color is attractive with the lining being more of a carbon-gray and the zipper pulls and teeth being a drab green. The 2 "handwarmer" pockets and 1 outside chest pocket are just right-sized. The 2-way pit zips are fantastic, capable of opening up to 12 inches at maximum. Elastic cinches around the hood and at the waist work well and are easy to adjust. Similarly the hook-and-loop closure at the cuffs is easy to adjust to get the jacket on and off or to cinch around the wrist as needed. The hood is well fitted.

Sizing note: the jacket is very oversize, especially around the midsection, as indicated by what they call "Expedition" fit. Normally I wear Medium, but I needed a size Small in the Drilight Rain Jacket. This still leaves plenty of room for layering under the jacket and length in the sleeves. For reference I am a 5'8", lean man with a 39" chest and 34" sleeve measurement.
