I was impressed by the two points: the front flap with snap buttons and the stowable hood, so I unexpectedly purchased it. I've experienced zipper troubles, so this product is reassuring. If it had pit zips, it would be suitable for outdoor use as well.

I bought it because I liked the design! However, the size felt larger than I expected. Well, I guess if I adjust it with the drawcord at the hem, it shouldn't be a huge issue.

For rainwear, it's an oversized fit that's easy to style even in town. I usually wear XL, but I went down one size. The GORE-TEX waterproofing feels like a technological advancement with softness comparable to Swallowtail.

I saw it in a store in early spring and had been curious about it for a while. It's GORE-TEX but soft, and the color is beautiful. However, I was worried about the high price. It was on sale in the online store, but the XS was sold out and on backorder. I happened to find one at a nearby store while out, and with the staff's recommendation, I purchased it.

It performed excellently in heavy rain and strong winds. When the weather is unpredictable, I carry the storage bag that comes with other North items, and sometimes I take it off. This one is also light and thin, so it's not a burden. The design doesn't feel overly outdoor-oriented, making it easy to use daily, and to top it off, it has the same color logo as my favorite ivory, and with a slightly longer length, I think I'll be able to use it for a long time.

I was torn between this and the Mountain Light Jacket. This one offers more variations in how to wear it, like with the five-minute sleeves or tightening the hem for a balloon look, and it's light and easy to match. However, it lacks ventilation features and the high price point is a downside.

I purchased it because it can handle sudden rain, and I liked the color and design. The staff was very courteous and I was very pleased. They taught me how to care for it and about the sizing, which made me really happy.
